Visible: Envaya links your website into its network so that anyone - including grantmakers - can easily find you when they are looking for civil society organizations like yours.

Translated: Envaya is translated in Kiswahili and English, so you can use whichever language you prefer. When somebody visits your site who can't read your language, Envaya will translate your content into their language.

Collaborative: Envaya lets you see what other organizations are up to, send them messages, and engage in discussions together. If an organization hundreds of kilometers away has a successful project and writes about it on Envaya, you can get ideas for your own organization.
