For many adolescent girls in Nairobi's informal settlements, staying in the classroom is an ongoing struggle against financial hardship and period poverty. At Farida Girls Foundation, we believe that education is a fundamental right, not a luxury. By directly paying school fees and providing comprehensive dignity packs for vulnerable girls like the one pictured here, we systematically dismantle the barriers that force young women to drop out. Our sponsorship pipeline guarantees that these bright students can focus entirely on their academic success, personal development, and future leadership potential.
Discover how our holistic safe spaces utilize creative platforms like music, dance, and theater to build essential life skills, foster emotional well-being, and unlock economic opportunities for young people.
Weekly tap, African, and modern dance sessions at Brilliant Primary and Caso Upendo Primary schools. These classes build physical skills, promote teamwork, and foster a renewed sense of hope and emotional well-being.
