Nikumbuke Women United
The US Embassy grant has provided us the opportunity to select 4 grassroot Kenya NGOs who’s mission is geared towards women-focused initiatives. We seek to work with these NGOs to implement soccer leagues where women can come together through sport to gain leadership skills and build resilient communities. We provided the organizations with start-up funds to implement their respective soccer leagues. Read more about the organizations below.
