Standing on our Shoulders is launched

Women for Change are delighted to have launched our inaugural Standing On Our Shoulders program.

Four teams of business women from different organisations have joined forces to work together to raise money to support tertiary scholarships for young Maasai women. The team leaders will be guiding and supporting the fundraising activities devised by the groups, with a focus on innovation and fun.

The purpose is not only to give time and to raise money but for the participants to support, mentor and inspire each other as they navigate the business world.

Good luck to all of our teams!
