The Bakhita Partnership for Education (BPE) empowers girls in Kenya, Uganda, and Zambia to access quality education, especially those facing challenges like poverty, early marriage, pregnancies, excessive home chores or COVID disruptions.

The Bakhita Partnership Project for Education is changing lives by giving vulnerable girls a second chance at education. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, many girls faced significant challenges, including dropping out of school due to financial hardships, early marriages, and unplanned pregnancies. This project steps in to provide support, covering school fees, materials, and personal needs while creating a safe, nurturing environment for learning and growth.

Through this initiative, girls who once saw no future are now thriving academically and pursuing their dreams. From high school success to university enrollment, their stories are a testament to the power of education and resilience.
