Akili is a school for girls! Educating girls changes their life trajectories. Studies have documented that school children are effective change agents; whatever is learned is likely to be transferred to the community. An educated girl marries later, has fewer children that she can take care of, and earns more wages hence eradicating the vicious circle of poverty. Let's educate our girls and empower women in Kenya!
These beautiful women are Lilian, Nancy and Jacinta. They are the teachers at Akili Preparatory School in Kisumu. They do a great job with our girls and their dedication is inspiring. They are really making a meaningful change in their community!
Lilian, Nancy and Jacinta are teachers in a mission, educate girls in Obunga!
On Wednesdays, the girls at Akili take a break from their uniforms. They call it "to get dress as civilians". They are all very fashionable and spunky!
In the lower grades, when a girl gets a right answer, this is the song their friends sing to her, while she is dancing in front of he classroom with both hands on her waist:
Well Done
Well Done
Thank You
Thank You
Try Again Another Day
A Very Good Girl
A GIRL, Not a Boy
We Love You Double!!!
