A BIG STEP FORWARD FOR OUR ENKISOMA PROGRAM!
We’re incredibly excited to share an important new chapter in the journey of our Enkisoma Program: the establishment of the Enkisoma Pay It Forward Initiative (EPIF) as a Kenyan-led Community Based Organization (CBO).
This is a milestone we’ve been working towards — building a sustainable, locally-led future for the Enkisoma Program so that the impact of one girl’s education can continue to the next generation.
Recently, our program manager Alice traveled across Kenya, from our Nyeri location to Transmara District, to meet with Agnes and Elizabeth, former Enkisoma scholarship recipients and now the first officials of the newly established CBO. (read more on our website – link in profile)
EPIF is more than a scholarship program. It’s a cycle of opportunity:
Receive. Grow. Give back. Help another girl rise. Help that girl to lift another.
We want to give a huge thank you to our friend David Sardar (and our mutual friend Mara, who introduced us!) for his incredible help over the past year. David generously volunteered countless hours brainstorming with us, reviewing and editing documents, asking important questions, and helping us fine-tune the program so we could build a strong foundation for the future. We are so grateful for his expertise, generosity, and belief in our mission.
And, of course, THANK YOU to all of our supporters and customers who believe in our mission for your continued support of Seeds to Sew and the Enkisoma Program over the years. None of this would be possible without you. ❤️
EPIF will remain under Seeds to Sew oversight, and we still have a lot of work ahead as the Kenyan team grows toward greater independence, but this is a remarkable step — and we couldn’t be more excited or grateful for what lies ahead.
