Got Sinai Foundation has been at the forefront in helping the women and girls from the marginalized communities in northern counties in Kenya set up small, informal businesses as a means of survival. These women have experienced untold discrimination and sexual exploitation, either because of deeply rooted cultural beliefs or poverty.

They literally depend on what they earn day to day from the small businesses we have supported them in setting up to feed their families and pay school fees for their children. With absolutely no business skills or training, they have been able to identify gaps in the market, through our training and monetary support, turning them it into an income-generating opportunities.

We have been able to identify several disadvantaged women, girls and the people living with disabilities in this remote part of the country, and supported them by setting up informal businesses for them. Our goal is to equip, educate and coach the owners, so they can start and build their business … and make their lives worth living.

A few months later, we have been amazed and humbled by what they have achieved so far. Through small donations by our partners, we have been able to impact positively the lives of these hitherto neglected and frustrated members of the society take the next step towards their dreams.
