" I believe mentorship is a powerful tool to break cycles of limitation especially for girls and the less fortunate. My drive comes from a deep desire to open doors of opportunity for others just as others have done for me. The Millennium Fellowship excites me because it offers a platform to amplify this work, collaborate with like-minded peers and align my efforts with the SDGs to create lasting impact in my community and beyond. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Empowering minds
The project involved writing an article that highlights the challenges facing the education sector in Kenya and sharing it with our peers to empower them and instill a sense of responsibility to collectively address the highlighted issues. The target audience was youth and our peers. The project aimed to gather feedback from readers and encourage a collective call to action among those who engaged with the article.
