Redefining Possibilities, Empowering Women, Transforming Industries

Born from a vision to empower young women, Ajira Yangu is a transformative initiative that equips women aged 20-30 with technical, entrepreneurial, and leadership skills.

Testimonial

What Our Clients Say!

Before joining this program, I didn’t think I could work in construction. The training helped me gain confidence and skills. Now, I run my own masonry business, and I can support my family. The lessons on saving and managing money have changed my life.

Jane Mwangi

Masonry Graduate
I never thought I could start my own business, but the training and support I got gave me the courage. With the savings group, I bought tools and started my plumbing business. Now, I am independent and even hire other women to work with me.

Wanjiku Karanja

Entrepreneur and Plumber
At first, learning welding was tough, but I didn’t give up. Today, I work as a welder and also mentor other women. The support from the group helped me stay strong, and I love helping others find their path.

Mary Atieno

Welder and Mentor
This program taught me electrical skills and gave me the chance to speak up for women. I’ve helped my company make fair rules for women workers. I now feel proud to inspire change in my industry.
