For Her

Improving school learning conditions and infrastructure while minimizing distance-related safety risks. We engineer safe boarding dormitories, clean water access, and sustainable menstrual hygiene banks to ensure no pastoralist girl abandons learning due to physical vulnerability.

The Environmental Margin

Removing Physical Barriers to Academic Continuity

In rural Kajiado, the journey to school can span 10 to 15 kilometers across remote scrubland and wildlife corridors. Adolescent girls face harassment, early morning assault risks, and severe exhaustion that disrupts cognitive retention.

Compounding this, the absence of clean private sanitation and menstrual hygiene kits forces girls to miss up to five school days each month. For Her tackles these physical realities head-on: modernizing primary boarding dormitories, installing solar-powered security, and establishing reliable, year-round pad banks directly on campus.

Safe Boarding Modernization

Constructing well-ventilated dormitories, secure boundary fencing, and study dining halls so girls reside safely at school throughout the academic term.

WASH & Water Systems

Installing rainwater harvesting tanks, solar-powered boreholes, and dignified private washrooms that provide reliable clean water for personal hygiene.

Campus Pad Banks

Stocking institutional emergency sanitary towel reserves and reusable kit supplies so no student stays home because of menstruation.
