Charlene Ruto (born 11 January 1993) daughter of Kenya's President William Ruto, holds a Bachelor's degree in Mass Communication from Daystar University and an MBA in Hospitality from Les Roches International School, Switzerland. Certified in Kenyan Sign Language, she has worked in media relations and PR, including campaigning for her father's 2022 election victory. Charlene actively participates in national and international forums, often under scrutiny for her "Office of the First Daughter" role, which she insists is privately funded. She also founded the SMACHs Foundation, advocating for smart agriculture and climate action, despite facing criticism over her perceived insensitivity towards youth unemployment issues.
