This organization was formerly known as Heshima Kenya.
The Daraja Academy Grassroots Girls Program is an extension of the Women of Integrity, Strength and Hope (WISH) curriculum. Daraja Academy, in conjunction with Groots International of Kenya, has launched a small pilot program to teach girls community grassroots leadership skills. The students have requested the program include the entire student body. The objectives of the program are to teach students leadership skills and to show them how to employ those leadership skills in real life context through the development of grassroots organizations that will benefit their communities and their country.
The DFW grant will support 104 girls in the leadership program by covering staff salaries, training, supplies for income-generating activities, field trip expenses (transportation, food, water), office supplies, curriculum development, transportation to partnering organizations, and incentives for service partners.
