SKY Girls are girls who have made the decision to be true to themselves and follow their passions. They're part of a community of teens who connect on social media, at events, in communities or in school, as they follow their passions and support each other to say no to the things they know they're good without. SKY offers girls opportunities to explore new interests and discover their own talents. SKY is led by girls - so whether it's writing articles, presenting a radio show, illustrating a cartoon strip, designing clothes or being math champions, they encourage girls to do their thing and support others who are doing theirs.Their programs engage girls through their four pillars; Self Care, Self Image, Empowerment and Development.Former Camp Mullah artist, Ms Karun is the current Sky Girl ambassadeur. SKY Girls Kenya is made possible through funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Want your daughter to be a Sky Girl? Register here.

On the heels of International Day of the Girl Child, we highlight the amazing work SKY Girls KE is doing to empower young Kenyan girls. SKY is a sisterhood of teen girls from across Kenya. Their mission is to encourage young girls to be "True to themselves and what they believe in". In a world that tells women and young girls to shrink themselves and conform to societal standards in order to fit in, SKY wants to amplify the voices of teen girls aged 13-17 and give them wings to reach the skies.
