Success requires so much more than school fees
Empowering girls: Hope Springs and Save Our Sisters
Designed and implemented by local Kenyan women who are recent college graduates sponsored by Kenya Keys, the Hope Springs program:
Empowers girls to speak up and find help in abusive situations.
Provides incentives to stay in school and avoid early marriages.
Offers entrepreneurial training, leading to self-reliance.
Poverty and lack of education fuel desperation that is simply beyond our imagination, which is why Kenya Keys supports several programs to help young girls. Save Our Sisters focuses on issues of violence, rape, and pregnancy, educating parents and young girls alike.
Empowering boys: Save Our Brothers and Hope for Boys
It all began with a desire to help the neediest boys in their school. It grew into a garden where they could grow and sell vegetables.
With the proceeds, these young men help their brothers purchase necessities (such as soap) and travel home during school breaks. Save Our Brothers program: started by boys, focused on boys.
In a plea for assistance, middle-grade boys asked for help from Hope Springs mentors. Read how this changed the hearts and minds of Kenya Keys staff: Hope for Boys. Most notably, these boys talk about the many traumatic circumstances they face and their need to rise to something better.
Stories of Strength
Hope Springs is a vital initiative that teaches life skills, critical thinking, personal hygiene, and more. Take a moment to watch and witness how this program boosts students' self awareness, confidence, and self expression.
Support the programs that help students afford transportation, food, feminine hygiene kits, and other necessities so they can focus on learning, rather than on surviving.
