The members of Milele were childhood friends in Kenya, up until high school when they were separated to follow the path of their individual lives. Each of them pursued school and work in different arenas, however, one day, 10 years later and 10,000 miles away form home in California, all four of them found themselves in the same room at a prayer breakfast. They had all come to the US separately to pursue further education.They started singing together as a pastime but it slowly not only evolved into a successful musical ensemble. Milele has traveled extensively and succeeded in becoming well known musical ambassadors in Kenya as well as Christian circles In the US. What began as a celebration of God through music became using music as a vehicle to carry out work that would move and spread the love of God.

Mission
The members of Milele became bound by their passion for remedying social injustices that riddle their home country of Kenya and the African continent as a whole. They realized that with their musical success spanning 10 years, they could use their voice to bring about much needed change. However, their musical success and endeavors do not begin to express the expansion and evolution of their mission

Milele's mission is to gather awareness, compassion and action through music to alleviate the burdens imposed by poverty, lack of resources and disease, on people in Kenya and Africa as a whole.

By embracing this mission, Milele are now better known for their humanitarian involvement rather than their music. While their music remains popular and enjoyable to many, their presence and contribution through the Change Africa Campaign and Milele Homes Project acts as a contagious spread of hope to those who are the benefactors of the efforts of the organization. In 2000 Milele Ministries Incorporated as a non-profit organization under the 501(c) 3 American tax code to better accomplish their purpose.
