Empowering Girls Through Education
WHO WE ARE
HOPE for Girls Education Africa is a grassroot nonprofit organization working in Migori and Narok Counties in Kenya at the heart of the iconic Maasai Mara game reserve. We are committed to protecting, educating, and empowering vulnerable girls in the Maasai community, where harmful practices like Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and early forced marriage continue to rob more than 84% of girls their right to a safe and fulfilling life.
HOPE for Girls Education Africa was founded and registered in 2015 and in 2024 expanded to a full nonprofit organization to serve additional counties; providing rescue and safe shelter, academic scholarships, life skills training, and mentorship programs to help vulnerable girls escape cycles of violence and poverty and build paths to self-sufficiency.
We celebrate the rich cultural heritage of the Maa people while promoting community-led alternatives to harmful practices. Our vision is a future where every girl can grow up safe, educated, and empowered.
