WHO IS KONDOSPEAKS?
Kondo Simfukwe is an advocate for vulnerable populations, a sought-after speaker, host, and event emcee committed to bringing people together and reminding us of our shared humanity. Whether speaking at a fundraiser, conference or hosting a national sporting event, Kondo delights audiences with curiosity in every interaction, making people feel seen and valued.
For over 12 years, Kondo has had the honor of standing on many stages to facilitate the relationship between the stars and the audience. Armed with cross-cultural experiences, a curiosity about people, an adaptability and a unique accent, he has been able to bring a fresh flair to hosting events that range from tennis to soccer, fundraisers to award ceremonies.
Whatever the topic, at the heart of Kondo’s messages lies his desire to celebrate and give meaning to every human story. As a profound storyteller, Kondo inspires people to move from a place of hurt to healing, brokenness to beauty, marginalized to centralized, and disconnected to connected. He is best known for his talks on advocacy for vulnerable populations, adoption, curiosity, and unity. His popular keynotes have been featured at events, including the Christian Alliance For Orphans, Lifesong for Orphans, Helping Hand Home, Momentum Youth Conference, RE: Conference, and Replanted Conference, often sharing the stage with fellow advocates, including Tim Tebow, NBA on TNT’s Ernie Johnson, comedian Michael Jr., Paralympian, Jessica Long, and others.
There's a human side to every story. Join Kondo as he speaks with people across the globe to uncover the beauty, brilliance, and brokenness of each human story.
Offstage, it's the simple things that Kondo enjoys the most: games with his family, being at his kids’ events, and serving his local church family. Kondo is a wannabe runner and tennis enthusiast who finds solace trekking the hiking trails of his hometown. He is a small town boy who enjoys an occasional fix of the vibrant big city.
Kondo's ties to the community run deep. As the lead communicator at Mission Point Community Church, a church he co-founded with his wife, he gets to play a part in leading their outreach programs. His goal is simple: to convey how Jesus perceives, speaks to, and serves people, especially those vulnerable and marginalized.
Whether crafting narratives on the stage, indulging in a game of tennis, or leading church initiatives, the mission remains the same: to celebrate and give meaning to every human story.
