One Girl Can

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

We Build

We build and rehabilitate existing schools for girls in rural Kenya and Uganda. We are committed to long-term partnerships that ensure the schools’ infrastructure will continue to support their growth and maintain safe and enriching learning environments.
