Empowering Girls to Rise Above Adversity
Encouraging and empowering
girls in Kenya to rise above
and live their lives for Christ.
Isaiah 40:31
A ministry for girls in their teens and twenties who are growing up in the Mathare Slums of Nairobi, Kenya. Encouraging and empowering these girls to rise above the hardship and adversity they face daily and to live a life for Christ.
Our Goal is for these girls to know that they are unique, treasured, and loved. We want them to know that they have people in their lives that are available to listen to them, encourage them, and to pray with them.
Our Core Values
Encourage | Love | Engage | Value | Accept | Trust | Empower
Everything we pour into these girls, every conversation, event, lesson, and prayer, is rooted in our core values.
Our heart is that every girl who comes to Elevate does not just hear these values, but truly feels and experiences them in real, tangible ways through relationships and Christ-centered love.
Elevate Events
We host girls conferences centered around intentional themes, each one designed to point girls back to the truth that they are deeply loved, valued, and intentionally created by God. Our heart is to remind them that they are seen, known, and never forgotten.
Beyond conferences, we create space for connection through other gatherings and special events like pamper days, baking events, game days, and a Christmas party.
No matter the setting, everything we do is about creating a safe space, building connection, and encouraging spiritual growth.
Elevate Kits
Life in the Mathare Slums comes with unique challenges, especially when it comes to access to basic necessities. Girls often lack basic hygiene items like sanitary pads, soap, and underwear, leading to poor hygiene and embarrassment. At Elevate, we are committed to meeting girls with compassion, dignity, and practical care.
That’s why at every Elevate event, we provide each girl with a hygiene kit. Each kit includes 2 pairs of underwear, 2 packs of sanitary pads, and 2 bars of soap.
For just $10, you can provide a girl with a kit and help her feel cared for, confident, and supported.
