The grants have been used to further Akili Dada’s leadership development programs, which include scholarships, mentoring, and leadership training academies. The remaining balance will be utilized in the same manner.
Impact There has been an increase in access to education. Young women, who otherwise would have limited opportunities to gain an education, have been able to attend high school and thrive. Many of the students on scholarship score very well in university qualification exams. One hundred percent of Akili Dada’s high school scholarship recipients have gone to earn full scholarships to continue their studies at universities in Kenya and abroad. Furthermore, an estimated 7,000 people in impoverished communities across Kenya have been positively impacted by community service projects designed and implemented by Akili Dada’s young women leaders.
