URGENT NEED

In January 2024, the Ewuaso Osiligi Center (EOC) rescued over 20 girls from forced early marriage, one as young as six years old. Many reasons contributed to this unprecedented number of girls being received in such a short time --

  • Kenya is still reeling from several years of severe drought and continued rampant inflation. Fathers took to "selling" daughters to help support other members of their families. 
  • Since the schoolyear ends in December in Kenya and the Christmas holidays provided time, girls were at increased risk of being cut and married off.
  • The EOC has developed a positive reputation and relationship with the Kenyan government, which has led them to place more rescued girls at our facility.

Action had to be taken quickly. Thanks be to God that we were given the privilege to provide a safe place for these girls. If you have ever thought about sponsoring a girl, the need is great. Now is the time. Please consider changing a young girl's life forever by sponsoring one of these rescued girls.

Hope Provided through Jesus Christ

At Kenyan Schools of Hope we are providing for young girls a sanctuary from female genital mutilation (FGM) and forced early marriage (FEM).  Both of these practices dramatically impact the lives and well being of the girls and lead them toward greater struggles in life.  The hope, healing and protection of Jesus Christ can be found at Ewuaso Osiligi Center.
