#SUPER GIRLS
Building A Society of Responsible Girls and Women
We are dedicated to empowering girls and young women who have been forgotten.
Ensuring the girl child is noticeable in a male dominated society
In September 2022, Mrs. Ruth Akoth took a momentous step towards liberating adolescence from harmful practices through education when she founded the Forgotten Voices Foundation. Her journey from a challenging upbringing in Uriri sub-county, where she witnessed gender-based violence within a polygamous family, was a source of inspiration.
