What We've Done
What We've Done
Since 2019, Empowering Teens Initiative (ETI) has been on an incredible journey, achieving impactful milestones despite the challenges.
Sanitary Drives
Over 500 girls and boys have benefited from our annual sanitary kit distributions. These drives, held in primary schools and churches across Kajiado County, ensure that no child misses school due to lack of essential hygiene products.
Mentorship Programs
Through group sessions led by a trained children’s social worker, we’ve inspired teens with discussions on self-worth, self-esteem, and life skills. Our mentorships also incorporate engaging activities like football, dance, and interactive talks, fostering holistic development.
Rescue Missions
In collaboration with the Kajiado Social Development Department, we’ve rescued vulnerable girls from abusive environments, including cases of sexual abuse, physical harm, and FGM. These missions provide a lifeline to safety and a chance for a brighter future.

If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.
