MEP – Skills and trade for High school graduates

March 7, 2026
by Swahiba@OlympicDrive

The Mentorship and Empowerment Program continues to open doors of opportunity for young women from the Kibera community. This initiative supports girls who have recently completed their high school education and were part of our high school programs the Jitambue Purity Program and First Priority. Through mentorship and practical training, the program equips them with valuable skills and trades that prepare them to transition confidently into the marketplace and take meaningful steps toward their dreams.

This year, 150 young women have enrolled in the program, demonstrating a strong commitment to building brighter futures. We are excited to share that they have already completed four weeks of the fifteen-week training program. During this period, participants have gained foundational knowledge in

Communication Skills, Career Awareness, Detergent Making, and Financial Management skills designed to strengthen their confidence, expand their opportunities, and encourage entrepreneurial thinking.

Each session is not only about learning new skills but also about nurturing hope, resilience, and purpose among these young women as they prepare for the next chapter of their lives.

We extend our sincere gratitude to our partners and supporters whose generosity and commitment make this program possible. Your investment is transforming lives and empowering a new generation of young women to step forward with confidence, dignity, and vision for their future.
