My Nonprofit Reviews

Poverty being widespread in Kenya -imagine how more cruel poverty can thus be among groups of women and children living in low-income informal settlements, rural-villages and peri-urban slums spread across marginalized settings that are already reeling under the heavy burden of diseases such as HIV/AIDS, malnutrition, hunger, crime, sexual violence, illiteracy, forced marriages, forced female circumcision and high maternal deaths. That is where SOWED Kenya works and those are SOWED Kenya clients. We were inspired by this work and the sheer responsibility of one organization, SOWED Kenya to begin ether over 100 Community Based Organizations to fight violence against women, and was leading in the fight. SOWED Kenya invited us to the alliance and sowed in us the inspiration to focus on women and children economic empowerment. 5 years down the line -we are providing legal aid, low-cost sanitary towels, trading in recyclable shopping bags, and a land buying projects that have gone a long way in helping to alleviate suffering among deserving women and children headed poor households with preservation of human dignity. As we write this review -we want to dedicate it to that woman today who views tomorrow with hope because today SOWED Kenya, EPJI and many other are doing something about their challenges.
