Our programs are geared toward empowering underserved communities with holistic, faith-based initiatives that promote safety, dignity, and long-lasting impact.
The Add-a-Room Program provides safe, private spaces for girls in rural areas, helping prevent gender-based violence, school dropouts, and harmful traditions. Each room includes a solar-powered lamp so girls can study at night and stay on track in school. Rooted in faith and purpose, this program empowers families to protect, educate, and uplift their daughters.

Menstrual Care Outreach empowers girls with dignity by providing washable sanitary towels, menstrual health education, and support. This initiative helps prevent school dropouts and protects girls from engaging in transactional sex for pads—giving them the confidence, safety, and opportunity to thrive.

Guided by faith and a deep commitment to human dignity, we go where others can’t, offering hope, healing, and the love of Christ in action.
