Right now, the world feels very loud. Every time I open my phone, I’m hit with a stress-inducing headline. It’s exhausting.
They say action is the best antidote for anxiety, so today I’m sharing TWO EASY actions you can take to stand with women and girls all over Kenya.
- Sign this online petition to declare femicide* a crime in Kenya. *Femicide is the intentional killing of women because of their gender, rooted in deep-seated violence and discrimination. Every two days, a woman in Kenya is murdered simply because she is a woman. This hits so close to home, because KGSA lost senior Cynthia in October of 2021 to violence.
- Listen to and share this podcast about how US foreign aid cuts are impacting the health of women and girls in Kenya.
At this point, things are changing daily in the USA, but our commitment to girls in Kibera remains the same.
Your unwavering support allows KGSA to educate and board 120 vulnerable girls in Kibera this year. Your support allows KGSA to keep these 120 girls safe and healthy.
Moving forward, I’m committed to keeping you looped in to both 1) KGSA’s impact and 2) how we as a community can continue to stand up for women and girls in Kenya.
