Summary
Too Young to Wed's mission is to empower girls and end child marriage globally. TYTW partners with Falling Waters Schools and Samburu Girls Foundation in Kenya to run ongoing sports programming which encompasses scholarships, rescue and reintegration, psychosocial support, and emergency assistance, keeping girls in school and preventing them from returning to child marriages. Playing football / soccer is more than a game for these girls; it is a pathway to safety, healing and leadership.
