  Descrição

  My name is Stacy, I am a law student in one of the Kenyan university's -kabarak University- I am currently 21 years old and the founder of our a charitable organization
  
  I come from a family of 8. My parents are both pastors of the Seventh Day Adventist Church.
  
  I have two elder brothers, two elder sisters, and a younger Sister Faith. We have grown up with our parents who are pastor , in the village in Oyugis, Homabay,Kenya
  
  We live in a community where girls education is not that valued, and thus young ladies often leave school as early as the age of 16 and opt to early marriages.
  
  Seeing my age mates get pregnant and opt for early marriages is one of the major reasons that motivated me to come up with this organization.
  
  A teenage mothers organization that aims at empowering teenage mothers through education, mentorship, creation of job, counselling session and being a safe home for the girls.
  
  We have managed to impact in the lives of more than 20 teenage mothers in Homabay county . Most of them have managed to go back to school and embrace education.
  
  We have also ensured a friendly environment for the victims by hosting them at our place as we continue building a safe house for them. We have university students(my friends) who have been very instrumental in mentorship program and counselling .
  
  Our friends plus the support team have always come handy offering free tuition to our girls during school breaks and organizing fun events for purposes of team building and empowerment.
  
  We really would be glad to extend this organization by involving our workawayers who are passionate at planting smiles and supporting the young vulnerable girls together with their children through fun activities, mentorship, counselling and event tutoring.
