By Ruth Konchellah | Director of Cherish Others Organization Kenya
Since our last periodic report, Cherish Others Organization Kenya has continued to carry out its activities to assist young women to avoid FGM and to empower them to avoid early marriage and to attend school.
During December, Cherish Others will hold its periodic seminars in the Transmara region of Kenya aimed at sensitizing girls and their families, as well as boys and community members, regarding these issues. This community-based, grassroots approach is highly effective, and the rate of FGM has been slowly decreasing as a result of increased awareness.
Cherish Others tremendously appreciate your donations, which are crucial to enabling our organization to continue to carry out its efforts.
