This programme aims at supporting quality education of girls in rural and informal areas by addressing barriers like teenage pregnancy, menstrual poverty and Gender Based Violence. Through the program we have led campaigns against teen pregnancy in 2020, reaching to Busia, Homabay, Machakos and Siaya counties through teen workshops. Through the sheRise clubs in schools, we provide a wholesome and sustainable mentorship program through a well-thought curriculum.
