- In her latest op-ed for @msmagazine.com, our founder reflects on what the world has—and hasn’t—learned since #COVID19 began. As #globalhealth funding dries up, it’s women and girls in the #GlobalSouth who are paying the highest price. Read her powerful call to action: msmagazine.com/2025/04/07/f...
- Our high school #ClassOf2024 is wrapping up an intensive #computerliteracy training designed to serve them as they transition to college this fall.

- We recently welcomed parents and guardians of our 4th–6th graders to KCE I for meaningful conversations on keeping girls safe over the April holiday, building strong family bonds, and preparing for the new term.

- At Kakenya's Dream, we remain deeply committed to engaging our communities in open, meaningful conversations about harmful cultural practices like #childmarriage and #FGM through our Linda Dada campaign.
- We're keeping girls in school, one pad at a time! #Periodpoverty should never stand in the way of a girl's education. Yet in Kenya, 95% of menstruating girls miss 1–3 days of school during their period because they lack access to #menstrualhygiene products and safe, private bathroom facilities.
- Don't miss our founder @kakenyantaiya.bsky.social's urgent call to action in @msmagazine.com. The pandemic’s toll on women and girls in the Global South isn’t over—and neither is our fight for health and #genderequity. #COVID19 #healthequity #WorldHealthDay
- Closing out a successful first term! ✅ We couldn’t be prouder of our students' dedication and hard work. Last week, they completed their end-of-term exams, and now they're enjoying a well-earned break to rest, recharge, and return even stronger for term II.
- We are deeply appalled by the recent news of this tragic event and the growing number of cases of #genderbasedviolence across Kenya. These harmful practices rob girls of their innocence, health, and future—a reality we must never accept. www.kenyans.co.ke/news/110367-...
