Today, we celebrate the boundless energy, creativity, and potential of young people around the world. Your vision and passion shape our future. Keep dreaming big and pushing boundaries—your impact is immeasurable.

It’s been a year of establishing, training & equipping the women of Enkang’ group by SASAL with the necessary skills to effectively run a business to improve their lives.

Our women empowerment model aims at uplifting women’s lives through their collective efforts in such a group in which they are able to collectively own assets/invest in projects that simplify their lives e.g. water projects.

We then handed over all the final materials after training . This marks a very significant step as the women group becomes independent and self-operational!

We are, however, responsible for marketing & selling 80% of their products as they take over the 20% by targeting local tourist lodges & resorts.

Looking forward to significantly uplifting the lives of the women in this group.

Embedded in Our Advocacy campaign dubbed ‘Toning’o Olosho Lang’- Pastoralists Awake: A common Voice & Agenda is a weekly radio talk show at Mayian FM (100.7) critically dissecting the topic of #climatejustice

It has become apparent to us the lack of knowledge/clear differentiation around the concept of #climatejustice hence translating to lack of action to end climate injustice meted upon communities such as the Maasai & other indigenous pastoralists! We are therefore LOCALIZING & SIMPLIFYING these conversations through vernacular media stations as well as traditional songs to promote understanding.

~Towards Thriving Pastoral Communities is our Tagline~

We had a very successful training today with the Community of Konei, Entasopia, Magadi ward, who have been gravely affected by the flooding situation last month. 

After our relief intervention that involved supply of food, bedding and sanitary towels, we sat down to train the people at risk areas- mapping out homesteads along the newly formed river to develop a risk management plan as well as understand how to effectively mitigate/reduce the losses from such unprecedented events. 

This involved conducting a SWOT analysis with them, brainstorming on future early interventions, as well as the formation of a village disaster management committee to coordinate disaster & risk reduction efforts at the levels. 

We look forward to a more climate-resilient, informed community that has the capacity to anticipate & respond to weather extremes.

With the support of the Urgent Action Fund, we managed to provide relief support in form of dry food supplies, mattresses & beddings to flood-affected families in Entasopia, Magadi ward, Kajiado County.

This comes after River Entasopia broke its banks, forming a completely new & permanent river passing through homesteads, farms, schools & hospitals wrecking a havoc resulting in massive losses and damages .

Through this relief exercise, we reached 100 families 70% of which are women-led. Earlier on, through our social media fundraising campaign, we managed to aid 60 of the same households with food supplies, clothing & sanitary towels!

Since most of the girls from families affected by floods are already in school, we decided to also reach them there.
Our team distributed Sanitary towels to girls of Paterson Memorial Secondary School in Olkiramatian, .Magadi ward, Kajiado County.
 130 girls received sanitary towels that will last them a full school term (3 months) ensuring they are confident & don’t miss out on any of their classes or compromise on their hygiene by not changing the towels as required due to its unavailability.

On the same, Oldonyokie Secondary were not left behind;
183 Girls got Sanitary towels to last them 3 months!!

Check all out below.

We thank all our supporters for enabling us to provide this support to the flood victims and wish the affected a quick transition back to their normal lives! SASAL will continue supporting however we can.

Still on our Advocacy Campaign, targeting Pastoralist communities and to begin with the Maa community (Kajiado, Narok, Samburu)- Toning’o Olosho Lang’- Pastoralists Awake: a common voice & agenda
