When you invest today, you are protecting a mother, extending a childhood, and changing an entire lineage. For many girls, the window between childhood and marriage is months — not years. We cannot wait.

Your support will transform generations of Maasai girls and women.

Help expand community-led health care, end harmful practices like FGM and early marriage, and ensure every Maasai girl has the chance to grow up healthy, educated, and free. Together, we can build a future where women lead and entire communities thrive.

What We Do

& How You Can Make a Difference

Reach more remote villages with mobile outreach teams

Provide sanitary supplies and school‑support kits to girls at risk of dropping out

Train and engage local women as peer‑educators in their own communities

Host dialogues with village leaders, change the narrative around marriage and FGM

When Teddy was 11, she watched a girl in her village give birth on a dirt floor without a midwife. No pain relief. No clean supplies. No mother to guide her, because her mother had died giving birth the year before.


This is still the reality for many Maasai girls today, children becoming mothers before they are ready, and women giving birth without safe care.

THE PROBLEM

Across rural Maasai communities, girls face a chain of preventable harms: early marriage, childbirth before their bodies are fully developed, and maternal deaths that leave entire families shattered.

  • In Tanzania, 28% of girls are married before 18 — many as young as 12.
  • Maternal mortality in rural Maasai regions is 4x higher than the national average.
  • Girls often miss school for months because of lack of menstrual supplies, making them more vulnerable to early marriage.

If you’re reading this, you likely grew up with choices — when to become a mother, access to basic healthcare, privacy and dignity during your cycle.


Most Maasai girls are not given those options.

Your investment directly funds:

  • Maternal care hubs where women receive safe prenatal support, skilled birth attendants, and postpartum care.

  • Menstrual-health education & reusable pad kits so girls stay in school, maintain dignity, and avoid early marriage pressures.

  • Community dialogues that help families choose education instead of early marriage.
