Hello good evening

Welcome to Kenya is an interesting county to be in

Good morning,

Kenya is indeed and interesting country to be in.  However, unless you get a work permit you won't legally be able to do any type of work, including voluntary/unpaid work, so helping Kenya in a practical way may be difficult.

If you are financially secure (with an income of equivalent $24,000 per year) you would be able to apply for a Class K Permit, which allows residence, but would not allow you to work. 

Other types of work permits can be difficult to obtain. 

Here are the details of the permits and passes available to foreigners:

So even though you are a resident in Class k your cajr worj? so you need two permits if you want to work? what about starting a business??

Work is not permitted with a Class K permit as the reason this permit has been approved is that the applicant has evidenced being able to support themselves from other financial sources.  The definition of 'work' covers paid and voluntary.

You cannot hold two permits simultaneously.

If you want to start a business and work within it, then a Class G Permit is required.  The primary eligibility criterion for the Class G mandates that the investor must demonstrate a commitment to invest at least USD 100,000 in the country.
