DescCenters for Excellence Program: Our Centers for Excellence are located in Enoosaen, a rural village in southwestern Kenya, and serve the regions most vulnerable and underprivileged girls. The program launched in 2009 with 30 students at our first school, Kakenya Center for Excellence, and just one building on site for girls to learn and sleep in. Since then, this 4th-8th grade primary boarding school has grown into a transformative model that serves 195 students each year. 100% of our current students and alumnae are continuing their education, free from female genital mutilation (FGM) and early marriage. We are also in the process of constructing a second K-12 boarding school. Our first class of 9th graders were enrolled in May 2018 and our second class was enrolled in January 2019. KD is committed to providing our students with all the resources they need to excel, addressing the girls physical, social, and emotional needs. We believe education is the key to unlocking each girls unique potential. For this reason, we ensure our academics are held to an international standard. The school offers a variety of subjects needed for a girl to succeed in high school and beyond, including English, Swahili, Mathematics, and Science. Our girls regularly score in the top 5% in their county. Our school is staffed with well-trained teachers and our 16:1 student to teacher ratio is less than half the national average of 56:1 or even the government mandated ratio of 40:1 for public primary schools. As a boarding school, we enable the girls to spend more time on their studies, since many are tasked with household chores and childcare for younger siblings when at home. We offer a supportive environment in which they can continue learning outside of the classroom. We provide the girls with all their school needs, including uniforms, textbooks, learning materials, and three nutritious meals per day supplemented by fresh produce from our campus garden. We enhance the girls academic experiences with extracurricular activities, clubs, sports, field trips, and more. Finally, in order to overcome the significant challenges facing girls, especially socialized norms that seek to oppress women, we work hard to ensure our girls know they are capable, supported, and strong. From public speaking to self-defense, we teach girls a variety of skills to help them become independent and confident young women. The success of the KD boarding school has also highlighted gaps in the Kenyan public education system. Currently, many of our students cannot even read and write when entering at grade 4 due to inadequate early childhood education. There is also a shortage of secondary schools around Kenya; many of our 8th grade girls struggle to secure a high-quality high school placement. In our Campaign for Kakenyas Dream, we want to address both problems by designing a complete kindergarten through 12th grade curriculum that offers a comprehensive knowledge base of STEM, liberal arts, art, and music. In 2018, the funding for the Centers for Excellence was approximately $407,000. Health and Leadership Training Program: In 2011, KD launched the Health and Leadership Training program to reach more girls with vital health information, safety skills, and leadership training. In 2018, 1,770 youth from 59 different schools participated in our weekend and week-long trainings. Since 2011, we have trained more than 12,000 girls and boys across the county. In 2019, we will begin a new peer-to-peer program to train recent college graduates on our curriculum so that they can deliver our trainings on a weekly basis across the county. The Health and Leadership Trainings allow us to reach vulnerable girls outside our school with critical information at the time they are most at risk of undergoing FGM and child marriage. The program also fosters an inclusive relationship between KCE students and girls in the surrounding region attending other schools. Twice each year KCE invites 6th and 7th grade girls from more than 40 schools in the surrounding region to join our students at week-long camps. Throughout the week of training, participants learn how to protect themselves against harmful practices, gender-based violence and life-threatening diseases, to prepare themselves with an education and information about opportunities for a better future, and to promote accurate information and new ideas about sexual and reproductive health among their friends, families and communities. They practice leadership-related skills such as communication and assertiveness and are taught about their rights according to Kenyan law. In 2014, our program expanded to reach both vulnerable girls and boys at schools throughout the county through monthly weekend trainings. These trainings are condensed versions of the weeklong training, available to all 6th-8th grade students from the participating schools. Trainers stress the importance that boys join with girls to become a new generation of leaders that stands together on the principle of education for all and that protects the rights of children everywhere. One of the most powerful aspects of these trainings is how far the information spreads. Each attendee takes the information they have learned and carries it home to their family members, friends, and other classmates. The Campaign for Kakenyas Dream will widen the impact of this program by opening a year-round health clinic, increasing the number of workshops to double the current reach, and bringing this critical education to more than 500 regional schools. We will design a training and health system delivery model that can be replicated in schools and in partnership with government entities across Kenya and Africa. The 2018 funding for the Health and Leadership was approximately $142,000.Desc

DescNetwork for Excellence: KDs Network for Excellence was developed in 2013 as a way to continue to support our graduates as they transition from primary education at our boarding school to secondary education in different high schools around the country. In 2018, all of our boarding school alumnae and additional students that were selected to participate in the program, participated in our Network for Excellence bringing our current number of students served to 200. Our first class of KCE girls, who entered our boarding school in 2009, completed secondary school in 2017, and the Network for Excellence expanded to provide support as they pursue post-secondary education options around the world in 2018. In 2019, our second class will be entering university/college. We are committed to supporting our girls from start to finish, ensuring that they have the tools they need to succeed throughout secondary school and beyond. In our students home communities, fewer than 50% of all girls are able to continue beyond primary school due to prohibitive costs and cultural expectations, with 15% receiving no education at all. Even for those who are able to attend high school, most schools have substandard curricula that do not prepare girls for continued education or successful careers. With this in mind, the Network for Excellence program includes five key components: mentorship, scholarships, academic support, continued leadership training, and college and career counseling. Through trainings at our campus in Enoosaen during academic holidays, the girls maintain their connection to KD and our current KCE students, providing them with the opportunity to bond with their college-aged mentors, to mentor current boarding school students, and to reconnect with their KD family. The support we provide through the Network for Excellence ensures that our primary school graduates can continue their education through high school, progress to university, and stay on a path to successful careers. The Campaign for Kakenyas Dream will provide further financial support to offset or fully cover tuition and expenses for high schools, financial support to encourage alumnae to continue to college or technical college, training awards for leadership development courses offered through the network, and internship stipends for a gap year between high school graduation and college or career placement. The funding for the Network for Excellence in 2018 was approximately $260,000.Desc

General explanation attachmentMission Statement Continuation: Our work demonstrates the positive social and economic impact that empowered girls and women can have on their communities. We envision a future in which African girls are valued and respected and have equalopportunity and ability to lead and engage their families, communities and the world. Our three core programs (Centers for Excellence, Health and Leadership Training and Network for Excellence) operate in Enoosaen, Kenya and are designed to empower and motivate vulnerable and marginalized young girls through education to become agents of change and to break the cycle of destructive traditional practices such as female genital mutilation (FGM) and early forced marriage. As in most villages in Kenya, women and girls in Enoosaen remain severely marginalized by cultural traditions. Girls in the Maasai community regularly stop going to school and are married off at adolescence after undergoing FGM, a painful and dangerous practice that is considered a rite of passage to adulthood. When girls are not educated, the cycle of marginalization continues from one generation to the next, with the men and tribal elders dictating a girls present and future without considering her social, financial, physical or emotional well- being. Around the globe data clearly indicates that investing in a girls education creates profound positive outcomes that impact not only the girl herself, but her family and community as well. KDs programs transform rural communities by demonstrating the great value that comes from educating girls. We provide accurate information about sexual and reproductive health and rights, which contributes to the eradication of gender- based violence, stigma and discrimination. When girls are educated, the oppressive cycle can be broken from one generation to the next. When cultural norms change, new opportunities open for the social, financial, physical, and emotional well- being of girls and boys as the next generation of adults. KDs programs are demonstrating that there is a viable alternative to what has been practiced in the past, transforming the lives of adolescent girls and giving their community and nation the benefit of dedicated, educated, confident young women. In 2017, Kakenyas Dream began a $5.5 million fundraising effort, When One Dream Leads to Another: The Campaign for Kakenyas Dream. Our plan is to expand operations to address unmet needs in the community and create a model that can be shared with other rural regions throughout the continent. The anticipated public announcement of the campaign will be in 2019.
