Equipping women with skills to prosper
What We Do
We empower women with essential skills to build a brighter future.
In Kenya, many women are caught in a cycle of poverty. The high cost of education and societal barriers limit their job options and independence. We offer hands-on vocational training in practical fields like tailoring and construction, paired with key business skills to help entrepreneurs succeed. We provide continued mentorship to our graduates to ensure that they turn their new skills into life-changing income. Throughout their journey, we support their overall wellbeing with services such as counseling, family planning, and initiatives to reduce gender-based violence.
Together, we are creating an opportunity for women to break the cycle of poverty and prosper.
prosper /verb/
1. to succeed; to do well financially
2. to flourish; to grow strong and healthy

Our Approach
-
Locally Led
Our founders and staff were born and raised in Asembo—this isn’t just where we work, it’s our home. We have a deep understanding of the community, their needs, and the most effective ways to create change. With strong local trust and firsthand experience, we are personally invested in making a lasting impact.
-
Data Driven
From day one we’ve focused on achieving tangible results and having the numbers to back them up. Our programs follow a clear impact framework, using surveys, skills assessments, and home visits to track progress. Most importantly, we analyze the data regularly and adapt our approach to ensure the greatest impact.
-
Deeply Committed
Breaking the cycle of generational poverty takes more than just skills training—it requires long-term, individualized support. Instead of offering shallow assistance to many, we focus on making a deep impact on each woman and her family. We are committed to walking alongside them, addressing every challenge they face, and creating lasting change.
