The Kipsongo Project is a non-profit organization working to improve the lives of those living in Kipsongo Slum in western Kenya. Rather than giving handouts, The Kipsongo Project believes in equipping women with the tools they need to earn an income and to contribute to their community in a positive way. Whether it be by helping to connect artisans to the global market so they can sell their goods, or by providing micro loans to enable recipients to start a business of their choice, the project simply provides the tools needed to help the tremendously talented women to reach their full potential.
