One Girl Can

One Girl Can

Our mission is to empower girls through education to break the cycle of poverty and gender inequality in Africa. Our holistic model supports a girl from the time she leaves primary school, until the day she gains meaningful employment.

We Build

We build and rehabilitate girls’ schools in Kenya and Uganda. We are committed to long-term partnerships that ensure school infrastructures will continue to support growth and provide a dynamic and safe learning environment.

We Educate

Education beyond primary level in Kenya and Uganda is not free. We provide secondary and university scholarships for girls with the greatest need and highest potential. This support ensures girls continue their education and never miss a day of school due to poverty or cultural pressure.

We Mentor

Together with our volunteer team of professional local women, we empower girls from high school to university level to achieve their potential through our series of mentoring workshops. This motivates, empowers and equips girls with the tools they need to be successful.
