EMADO is a community-based organization dedicated to empowering young Maasai women in Kenya, particularly in regions such as Kajiado, Narok, Samburu, and beyond. Founded with a vision to combat the deeply entrenched practices of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and Early Marriage prevalent in Maasai culture, EMADO strives to provide hope and support to girls at risk of these harmful traditions. At the core of EMADO's mission is the protection of girls' rights and well-being. We actively engage in rescuing and providing a safe haven for girls fleeing from the threat of FGM and Early Marriage. Our rescue centers offer refuge, counseling, and educational opportunities to empower these young women to pursue their dreams and aspirations.
