Support girls' education and end FGM in Kenya

Organization information

Kakenya's Dream

Location: Arlington, United States of America

Summary

Our boarding schools, the Kakenya Centers for Excellence, currently serve 324 girls in grades 4-12 in a safe environment while providing holistic support, including healthy meals, uniforms, hygienic needs, and more. Pre-COVID19, 80% of Maasai girls in our region underwent female genital mutilation when they reached adolescence. Our program protects girls from this practice and incorporates health and leadership elements that allow them to pursue their own dreams.
