Vision
Our vision is for every girl in Kenya to have an equal chance to achieve her potential and be free from poverty.
Mission
Our mission is to involve entire communities in gender equality, so that girls in rural Kenya can create their own bright futures.
What we do
We work with local Kenyan people to educate girls, empower women and transform communities in rural Kenya.
Girls can change the world
Given the chance, girls can play a critical role in solving the most persistent development problems facing the world today. By investing in girls’ education, preventing early marriage and teen pregnancy, issues such as HIV and AIDS can be resolved and the cycle of poverty can be broken. It’s not about prioritising girls over boys (in fact, we do lots of work with boys and men in the community), it’s about working with all members of the community to level the playing field and tackle inequality.
