AERC' programs address traditional and modern barriers to education. We realize our mission through various programs.

Our philosophy of education is based on our belief in a holistic approach to education. Therefore, our programs target the whole person's development. We believe that Africa needs women who can fit and contribute positively to their society - and we are seeing the results already!

1. Educational Resources: To raise scholarship funds and provide reading and writing materials to girls. Since 2003, Kenyan children now have access to free primary education. However, secondary education remains out of reach for many girls due to lack of tuition and fees. AERC reaches out to help these exceptionally talented but needy girls providing scholarships. AERC facilitates this process by:

• Raising scholarship funds
• Identifying scholarship recipients. Scholarship Criteria; Scholarship Application form
• Disbursing scholarships directly to schools.

2. Mentoring Program: At AERC, we not only give scholarships. We are role models and mentors to many girls who need inspiration. We dare our girls to dream big! AERC mentors visit the girls every term during the school year to ensure that they stay in school.

3. Research on Education: We raise awareness about issues affecting African girls and women in order to increase access to quality education. Visit our research page to learn more.

School fees are keeping children out of the classroom, and many of
these are the most vulnerable children in our societies -(UN Children's Fund).

Unless we act now, many of the children who have enter to school may never complete their education! Support or collaborate with us on any of our programs.
