We invite you to join us in empowering the women of Nakuru, Kenya by providing them with the tools, resources, and skills they need to change their families’ lives for generations to come.

No amount is too little. Let’s come together as a global community to show these women we appreciate their efforts and that no matter the situation, we’re all in this together. Let’s lift them up just like they have uplifted others.

Teen Mother Program

The Women Like Us Foundation is helping teens find a stronger future and build economically stable lives. The Women Like Us Achieve program at the Women Like Us Center has developed a special program that helps them to understand the importance of nutrition for both themselves and their children. They learn to understand the skills of breastfeeding and child caring. We also have placed the teen girls into our sewing and computer classes.

Technology

Donations will allow us to provide a computer that the women can use to further their education and develop skills that will make them competitive in the local workforce.

Donate $200 to provide funding for one computer!

Education

$1200 funds a teacher’s salary for a year — this teacher will instruct the women at the Center on digital literacy and how to use software that will give them sought-after skills in their local workforce.

Donate $100 to provide funding for one month of the teacher’s salary!

Support

$1375 supports 25 women for one month.  We seek to raise enough money to support 25 women for the next 7 months — which will go so far to support them and their families through the current COVID-19 crisis.

Donate $55 one-time or commit to $55 monthly to support one woman and her family for a month through the COVID-19 crisis.

In developing countries, up to 43% fewer women have access to the internet than men.  90% of jobs in Africa are created by entrepreneurs, making the role of the digital economy in African growth undeniable.  Though women inject 90% of their income into their families and communities, their greatest barrier is that they often do not have access to funding opportunities or formal training necessary for future success.

We know that education is an essential tool to empower women to gain confidence and achieve economic stability and success.  In today’s digital era that has been largely defined by technological advancements, access to technology is essential to anyone’s educational and economic success.

Women Like Us Foundation supports and encourages the goals of the women by working with them to develop businesses and career plans to make specific and achievable goals that will help them achieve stability and success.

When I came here I didn’t even know how to [use a] sewing machine… We have several things that we have learned here apart from sewing, which is also beneficial for us. Like communication skills, which are very important in life. Because we know that without communication we cannot do anything.
