@nlwrotaryclub@RotaryTameside@Craig_Roberts10 We are truly grateful for your unwavering support over the years. Your commitment and generosity have made a lasting difference, enabling Candlelight for Empowerment CBO to empower countless children and families with hope, education and safety.
Tonight we gave a presentation on the excellent work of @CandleKenya in educating young children in Kilifi to bring them out of poverty and safeguard them. Truly inspiring stories from Stuart and Janet Ainscough.
✨ Candlelight for Empowerment CBO launches the #16DaysOfActivism! ✊🏾 We’re spotlighting Digital Violence Against Women & Girls from online harassment to image abuse. Over the next 16 days, we’ll share awareness, legal info, and support resources.
Join us to #EndDigitalViolence
Each week, women in Kanamai villages, Kilifi County, meet to share parenting tips and support each other in creating nurturing homes.
They then join a Village Savings and Loan Association (VSLA) to build economic resilience and strengthen community ties.
Reflective school club sessions are in full swing—creating safer schools and reducing violence against children. With committed teachers and club leaders leading weekly sessions, we’re taking real steps to protect every child. #EndViolence#SafeSchools#ChildProtection
This gathering also served as an importart moment for the Collaborative Learning Initiative (CLI) partners, with leaders from the 2021-2025 cohorts coming together to exchange ideas and share experience meaningful discussions.

#EducationForAll
Every child deserves a chance to learn and thrive. Investing in quality education is not only a human right, but also a powerful tool for breaking the cycle of poverty and inequality.
Candlelight handed Cheques for our beneficiaries for their next term.

A work plan is a road map that guides the project team to project completion. Our peer educators developed their work plans that will guide them on how to properly undertake peer to peer education in their community. We are proud of our young peer educators.
Through peer education, the trained adolescent girls and young women have initiated sessions in their villages and community at large.
Let’s change the narrative!

Comprehensive age-appropriate sexual reproductive health and rights education is a human rights issue. It can empower adolescent girls and young women to make informed decisions about their bodies, relationships, and futures.
@safecommunity4 @DSWKenya @HerVoiceFund
Our organization in collaboration with Safe Community Kenya trained adolescent girls and young women as peer educators on Comprehensive SRHR education which is essential as it instills knowledge and skills on sexuality information and skills that they should know from a young age
We held quarterly review and planning meetings with Community based facilitators, Focal Teachers and Out of school adolescents. The meetings helped to share their experiences and lessons learnt, adopt best practices to improve the project and have joint action strategies.
