PASTORALIST CHILD FOUNDATION
The mission of Pastoralist Child Foundation is to eradicate Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and forced early marriages in rural communities in Kenya, primarily Samburu and Maasai Mara regions. Through mobilization and education, Pastoralist Child Foundation replaces harmful practices with Alternative Rites of Passage, and provides full scholarships for students attending secondary boarding schools and universities. Pastoralist Child Foundation's educational workshops are provided at the grassroots level in very remote areas. Workshops and community dialogues focus on FGM, child marriage, teen pregnancy, HIV/AIDS, sanitation, sexual & reproductive health, self-awareness, self-confidence, child rights, and the importance of formal education.
