Warrior Queens Rise

Warrior Queens Rise's long-term vision is to create a just and equitable world where women are respected, empowered, and free from violence. By addressing issues such as gender-based violence, FGM, access to sanitary napkins, and mental health, we aim to uplift and transform the lives of women worldwide. Through education, advocacy, and empowerment, we strive to build a global sisterhood where every woman can rise as a warrior queen, confident in her abilities, and empowered to create positive change in her own life and the lives of others. Together, we will build a future where women's rights and gender equality are not just ideals, but a reality for all.

Our global organization is centered around human rights and women's empowerment with four major areas/issues to address:

GBV; Gender-Based Violence
FGM: Female Genitalia Mutilation
Access to and education about female sanitary napkins
Mental Health and Wellness

Did you know that…

337,000 children under five years old suffer from malnutrition
65% of females in Kenya are unable to afford sanitary pads One million school-age girls miss an average of four school days per month because of their menstrual cycle and no access to feminine hygiene products
40% of women in Kenya have experienced physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence in their lifetime
More than 200 million girls and women alive today have undergone female genital mutilation (FGM) in 30 countries in Africa

Core Values

Love: We believe that love is the foundation of all relationships and actions. We strive to approach everything we do with love, treating others with kindness, compassion, and respect.
Reciprocity: We believe in the power of giving and receiving. We understand that by giving, we create a ripple effect of positive change.
Community: We understand the power of sisterhood and the strength that comes from standing together. We believe in the power of collective action and recognize that together, we can achieve more.
Self-Powered: We believe in the importance of taking ownership of our actions and choices. We empower ourselves to take control of our lives and create the reality we desire.
Strength: We view strength as a powerful attribute that goes beyond physicality. We believe in the inner strength that enables us to overcome challenges and adversities.

Together, these core values guide our interactions and decisions, creating a community where love, reciprocity, and self-empowerment flourish. We believe that by embodying these values, we can uplift and inspire each other to reach new heights and make a positive impact on the world.
