Journey with us to Nairobi, Kenya…
SEPTEMBER 12-20, 2020 (inclusive of travel dates)—
Join RefuSHE in Kenya, the heart of East Africa. We’ll visit RefuSHE’s Girls Empowerment Program campus in Nairobi’s quiet Lavington neighborhood and spend time connecting with the young refugee women and children in our care. You’ll try your hand at the art of tie-and-dye, learn traditional East African dance moves, and hear stories from come to know the Rubondo community members and will join them, Alight staff and your fellow travelers, side by side, to do hands-on projects, amplifying the youth in this community.
RefuSHE provides holistic services to address the myriad of challenges facing refugee girls and young women. See firsthand how RefuSHE is protecting, nurturing, and empowering unaccompanied refugee women and girls in East Africa by providing safe shelter, specialized education, vocational, training, counseling, and the leadership skills needed to move towards economic independence.
Over the last year, Edmentum’s “We Can Learn” Foundation has been a champion of access to education in Rubondo, providing opportunity for learning in a place that had seemingly been forgotten. We’ve uplifted the Rubondo youth and greater community, and with you by our side, we’re excited to bring even more change.
Connection and changemaking will be at the heart of this transformational experience, won’t you come along?
