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.
