Our Mission

Devoted to providing the means towards the rescue, rehabilitation, education and mentoring of women and girls restricted by their circumstances.

The circumstances of many young girls and women around the world cause them to be deprived of safe living conditions, medical care, education, freedom of choice and even the basic necessities of food and clothing. Since Give a Girl a Chance started it has been working to raise funds to be able to deliver the help that is so clearly needed.

About 2 million girls a year experience Female Genital Mutilation, many more are forced into early marriage, and tens of millions are forced to seek refuge from armed conflict and gender based violence.

With every donation however big or small, you will be giving a girl the chance of an education and the possibility of reaching her full potential.

Please help us to give a girl a chance by donating today.

    Zachary Taylor Orphanage fundraiser for new dormitories

    The next step towards improving the difficult situation for the children at the Orphanage will be the rebuilding of the dormitories. Give a Girl a Chance has decided to assist this year and is trying to raise the US$31,160 that is needed to build proper dormitories, which include separate washrooms for the girls and boys.

    When the team was in Kisii in March and April, several meetings took place with the staff of Zachary Taylor to look at the requirements for rebuilding the dormitories and evaluate the accountability of the emergency funding. The emergency funding was handled to our great satisfaction, with every shilling properly accounted for, and an architect had already drawn up a plan for new dormitories. What is next, of course, is to raise the funds to start building! Many ideas are already on the go, but of course your help is more than welcome! A group of young people in Kenya have expressed their willingness to help as well, by using their skills as musicians and dancers to help raise funds in Nairobi, and the GGC team is working out a plan to make that happen.
