About us

HISTORY

Founded in 2023, Al-Banaat is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering girls and young women in Maralal, Samburu County, Kenya. Our core focus lies in addressing Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and Gender-Based Violence (GBV) – critical issues that hinder their development and well-being.

THE VISION

We envision a future where girls in Maralal are free from the physical and psychological trauma associated with FGM and GBV. We aim to cultivate a generation of self-assured young women equipped with the skills and confidence to realize their full potential.

OUR MISSION

Al-Banaat utilizes a unique approach that combines martial arts instruction with comprehensive education. This empowers girls to develop self-defense skills, build resilience, and foster a strong sense of self-worth. These tools are essential in combating GBV and the harmful practices associated with FGM.
