Nonprofit Work

1. Girl Pride International (GPI) and GPI Samburu Chapter

At GPI Samburu, we are working on various Community Building Projects, including constructing maternity
houses, building a solar-powered and Wi-Fi-enabled classroom, repairing a water pump in the Remot
Primary School to combat drought, and fighting severe food scarcity due to climate change and other factors.
We have also supported Central-American migrant children in New Orleans, provided key Hurricane relief in
Honduras, and donated PPE to the Ethiopian Ministry of Health

So far, our Ambassadors Scholarship Program has equipped 100 Samburu students with full-tuition
scholarships and additional financial aid

Our “Fighting Hunger for Education” food security campaign sustained 1,500 Samburu students and families
for four months. Our work received exposure among Kenyan media outlets such as The Standard, Kenya’s
premiere newspaper
