The COVID-19 pandemic completely derailed the education journey for the poorest and most vulnerable children. RKF's main aim is to ensure school children in Kisumu always have access to quality education. We do this by ensuring students have access to two hot meals while at school, educational supplies like books and stationery and sanitary pads for girls. We also support the families of students with food rations

A study by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation found nearly 65% of women and girls in Kenya are unable to afford sanitary pads. Other studies show that many girls drop out of school when they hit menarche, with many missing up to 5 days of school every month. Furthermore, many girls are cornered to engage in 'sex for pads' that leads to 13,000 teenage girls in Kenya dropping out of school annually. Our program makes Sanitary Kits and SRH workshops accessible to girls so they stay in school.

The recent environmental crises around the world have stopped us all in our tracks; while there is a lot being done to provide immediate relief, we are asking ourselves what can we do at an individual, organizational and community level to make a difference. What action can we take to ensure such catastrophes do not repeat themselves? Inspired by Greta Thunberg, we asked ourselves, what if students could take action while they were still at school? Will the future generation be better equipped?
