Organization information
NYANZA INITIATIVE FOR GIRLS' EDUCATION & EMPOWERMENT (NIGEE)
Location: Kisumu city, Kenya
Summary
NIGEE is a Kenyan-based non-profit organization that helps school girls who dropped out due to teen pregnancy or child marriage. About 200 of these girls have completed high school and need vocational training to join the job market, and about 300 girls in school need a facility to convene during school holidays and be tutored on sciences and educated on reproductive health. The Girls' Empowerment Center will offer these services to 500 girls and host 50 victims of sexual violence.
