The TOGETHER Project continues to transform lives across the world, and this impact wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of donors. In Turkana, Kenya, we met Alice who faced unimaginable hardships, including the loss of both parents and the challenges of raising a family at a young age.  

Becoming a mother of two while still in school forced Alice to leave her education behind. But her story doesn’t end there. Thanks to the support from donors for the TOGETHER Project, Alice found renewed hope and a brighter future. When ADRA arrived in her community, Alice attended the life skills classes. These classes provided crucial information about sexual and reproductive health, empowering her to make informed choices and regain control of her life. 

“If ADRA had come earlier,” she shared, “I would not have suffered.” Alice’s return to high school powerfully demonstrates the project’s impact on young girls like her. She is not only rebuilding her own life; she’s inspiring others. She actively encourages girls in her village to prioritize education and make wise decisions about their futures.  

Alice’s journey highlights the impact of the TOGETHER Project. While providing information is worthwhile, it’s the confidence, resilience, and hope that truly transform lives. Contributions for this project help to empower girls like Alice to overcome adversity, pursue their dreams, and become agents of change in their communities. Together, we can empower more girls like Alice to rise above their circumstances and achieve their full potential.
