College life, with its demanding nature, requires a holistic approach. GLOW understands this, that's why we encourage our girls to dive headfirst into extracurricular activities. It's more than just stress relief; it's a pathway to a balanced and fulfilling college experience.

Over school breaks, our girls return home, contributing in various ways, including handling domestic chores, tutoring younger siblings and participating in farming activities to assist their families.

Twice a month, Doreen steps into Harambee Arts, a rehabilitation facility in Nairobi's Kibera slum. Here, she shares her passion for art with children and women, teaching them to express themselves through sketching and painting.

GLOW takes pride in a thriving community of 85+ alumni. Beyond graduation, our mission extends to keeping our girls actively involved. Since the inaugural graduate class of 2018, we've orchestrated programs that successfully beckon alumni back into the fold.

Our alumni generously contribute to the ongoing growth of our network, passionately volunteering in various capacities. Here's a glimpse into the impactful ways they continue to shape and uplift the GLOW community.
