Summary

Empress is a group of community leaders based in Marurui, Nairobi, Kenya.

Empress is involved in empowering teenage parents by providing mentorship opportunities to foster their growth as community leaders and equip them with the skills and confidence to speak up for their own and families’ needs. Additionally, Empress has a big impact for the girls in Marurui as they help break down the societal stigma facing teenage mothers.

This project is organized by Girl Aid Foundation, a partner that aims to eradicate period poverty and improve the socioeconomic status of girls through education. SKY Girls Kenya and members from Feradon Foundation are also pariticpating in this project.

Our participation involves finding innovative ways to enable self-sufficiency in their community and we’re excited about this opportunity.
