In many cultures, FGM — also known as cutting — symbolizes the transition from girlhood to womanhood and is a harmful cultural practice done on girls as young as 10 (in some places, on girls even younger). In areas of Kenya, it’s traditionally seen as a precursor to child marriage, but both FGM and child marriage can have devastating physical and psychological effects on girls.
272,137 children, youth, and adults reached in FY23 through Kenya Big dream — 103% of target.
960 children graduated from five-day long Alternative Rites of Passage (ARP) ceremonies.
212 savings groups were established. Members of one savings group, after learning the value of their honey, showcased their product at an agricultural trade fair — which led to them tripling their previous years income.

“I met a group of 34 young girls at a rescue center in West Pokot, Kenya. God placed a fire in my heart for those girls...and that trip proved to be the beginning of an incredible transformation...for the girls, for their community, and for me.”

“I’ve seen firsthand that when young women’s lives are transformed, they in turn become powerful agents of change in their communities.”
