OUR MOTTO

Empowering Through Language

OUR PHILOSOPHY

**Our Philosophy:**

At KWS Language Services, our philosophy is deeply rooted in the belief that language is not just a means of communication, but a powerful tool for fostering connection, understanding, and empowerment. Our journey began with a clear vision: to bridge the language gap that often separates communities, and to provide individuals with the means to unlock new opportunities through language.

Compassion-Driven Service:

Our commitment to service stems from our founders' decade-long engagement with refugee communities. We understand that in a rapidly changing world, compassion-driven assistance can make a world of difference. We approach each interaction with empathy, recognizing that behind every language challenge lies a unique story and a potential for positive change.

Quality and Accessibility:

We stand firmly behind the idea that learning a new language should be a quality experience that is both affordable and accessible. Our language learning programs are meticulously designed to be convenient, flexible, and tailored to individual needs. We believe that everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances, should have the opportunity to enhance their language skills and broaden their horizons.

Language as Empowerment:

Language, for us, is more than just words; it's a gateway to empowerment. Whether it's enabling volunteers to communicate effectively with refugee populations or providing translation services to help newcomers navigate their new environment, we view language as a catalyst for personal growth and community integration.

Collaboration for Impact:

Collaboration lies at the heart of our mission. We seek partnerships with organizations and individuals who share our vision of using language as a means to empower and connect. Together, we can create lasting, positive change in the lives of those we serve.

A Future of Inclusivity:

As we move forward, our commitment to inclusivity remains unwavering. We envision a future where language barriers no longer divide us, where communication is a bridge rather than a barrier, and where individuals from all backgrounds can participate fully in their communities.

Join Us on the Journey

We invite you to join us on this meaningful journey of empowerment through language. Together, we can make a lasting impact, break down barriers, and build bridges of understanding. Language is the key, and at KWS Language Services, we're here to unlock its full potential.

ABOUT US

KWS language Services was created in response to the glaring need for quality, affordable and convenient means of learning Swahili in the United States.In the recent years due to the rapidly changing geo-political conditions, there has been an influx of Swahili speaking refugees, among others, to the Western World.

As a result, thousands of volunteers have signed up to work among the refugees. KWS language services founder creator Karen Wanjiru Stringer, and her husband Scott have been working within the refugee communities in their home city of St. Louis, for about a decade now.

As a volunteer, she noticed that most English-speaking volunteers were struggling to find resources to help them learn Swahili. Using her experience as a native Swahili speaker, a college professor and an avid language learner herself, Karen set out to create a service that would combine both quality and affordability into a convenient program that could be taken at one's own pace and translation services that would help these refugees better understand services that were being offered to them.

This platform would become KWS Language services which consists of two entities: KWS translations and LSN: SWAHILI for Hearts on a mission. Because of our origins, using language as a means of service to our fellow humans, is always at the heart of everything we do. and it is our hope that we will find an opportunity to colloborate.
