Empowering Young Women: A Journey to Kenya

*Help Us Fundraise for an Unforgettable Adventure*

In the summer of 2025, 16 young members of Girlguiding, aged 14-18, will embark on an extraordinary two-week journey to Kenya. This trip is not just about travel; it’s about making a meaningful impact, experiencing diverse cultures, and encountering incredible wildlife. We need your support to make this dream a reality.

*A Mission for Sustainability*

The heart of this adventure is a solar power project. Our Girlguiding members will work together to install solar power systems in rural Kenyan homes, bringing sustainable energy to communities in need. This initiative not only provides much-needed electricity but also empowers local families with resources for a better future.

*Cultural Immersion and Wildlife Encounters*

Beyond their work, the girls will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in Kenyan culture. They will spend time with the Masai tribe, learning about their traditions and way of life. “Meeting the Masai people and learning about their culture will be amazing,” says Emma, one of the participants. The adventure also includes exploring Kenya’s stunning wildlife, with potential sightings of giraffes, lions, and flamingos.

*Building Skills and Memories*

This journey is a profound learning experience. The girls will develop essential life skills such as teamwork, resilience, and problem-solving. They will face the challenges of communal living, adapting to new environments, and overcoming obstacles together. “This trip will teach us so much about ourselves and each other,” says Lucy, another excited participant.
