Our survivor-leaders in Zambia and Kenya went through a newly designed curriculum on how to share their story with dignity. We are excited to bring this curriculum online so that all communities can participate.
scholar highlight of the month
As a young and determined lawyers from a rural area, I realize how people are exploited due to lack of knowledge about the law of Kenya. During the pandemic, I launched a website in Teso Land, Busia county, to help the community be informed about their rights. This will act like a pro-bono service to help any person who needs legal help. The site contains: LLB law, human rights, and law articles.
This month, I have also had a chance to talk with girls in my community about early pregnancies since there has been an uprising of teenage pregnancies since closed have been closed. I am looking forward to joining the Kenya School of Law, sponsored by Freely in Hope! This was my biggest highlight!

My book launch party was such a beautiful success! Thanks to all who joined in online to celebrate with me—we raised $26,141 and more members are joining Hope Circle daily!

I continue to give through the COVID-19 pandemic because I am a Jesus-follower and sharing my resources is just one small way to shine a light in this dark time. I’m also a mother of a four year old girl and I’d do anything to keep her safe. I feel the same sense of fierce protectionism for all the daughters of the world.
