Our Mission
Gladwell, an exceptional Kenyan woman, and the driving force behind Girls Hope, has dedicated her life to rescuing thousands of young girls ages 4-17 from harmful and illegal cultural practices. Being a survivor herself, this mission is at the heart of her life’s work. Currently, she cares for over 100 incredible girls at her campus, with plans to expand homes throughout Kenya to provide sanctuary to even more.
Our mission is to create a world free from gender-based violence by collaborating with local organizations and governments to rescue girls from abusive environments. We are committed to equipping them with the tools they need to succeed, and empowering them to become active, confident citizens. In addition, we raise awareness of gender-based violence and advocate for programs that protect and empower girls around the globe
Prevailing Crisis In Kenya
In Kenya, women and children walk kilometers daily for water, risking constant wildlife attacks and human predators. But the danger isn't just lying on the road; harmful traditions like female genital mutilation (FGM) and child marriage still threaten their freedom. We are fighting for a cultural movement—educating men and empowering girls to ensure that safety and dignity are no longer a luxury, but a right to them.
A New HOPE
Girls Hope Rescue Mission works to address this issue by providing safe havens for girls affected by gender-based violence. Gladwell rescues girls from abusive environments and provides them with the necessary tools to succeed, including access to education, health care services, and legal support.
Our Projects
At Girls Hope Rescue Mission, we believe that all girls should have access to safe havens and the opportunity to reach their full potential. Our mission is dedicated to providing assistance and support for girls across Kenya who are at risk of exploitation and abuse due to gender-based violence. Girls hope rescue mission is also building a Hospital in rural village in Kenya to help with female genital mutilation recollection, child delivery and minimize the rate of HIV infection in Kenya.
