Our Mission Global Roots is dedicated to protecting vulnerable children while ensuring they receive education, nutrition, and emotional support. Through community-driven solutions, we create a future where every child thrives.
Stolen Childhoods
Across Kenya’s Maasai community, our work is helping girls escape FGM, stay in school, and reclaim their futures—with legal protection, safe shelters, and year-round mentorship.
Hunger & Instability In times of crisis, hunger pushes children out of classrooms and into survival. Our school garden programs feed both bodies and minds—ensuring every child can learn without going hungry. Lack of Protection
Without safe spaces, vulnerable children face violence, exploitation, and fear. Global Roots provides shelters, mentorship, and round-the-clock protection—creating environments where children can finally feel safe and supported.

Harvesting Hope

A hungry child cannot learn. Our programs combine education with nourishment. Through school gardens and local agriculture, we provide fresh food to children and their families.

We Do
Global Roots exists to protect children in crisis—whether it’s an Afghan girl defying a classroom ban or a Maasai girl running from FGM—because we believe every child deserves safety, dignity, and the chance to dream freely. “You can silence a classroom, but not a child’s will to learn.”


“When we rescue a girl, we’re not just saving her—we’re freeing generations after her.”

“This work isn’t about charity. It’s about justice where the world has looked away.”

FGM ZERO: KENYA
From Rescue to Resilience
Saving a girl is just the beginning—keeping her in school is the key to her future. Through educational funding, safe housing, and mentorship, we break the cycle of harm and open doors to opportunity.

The Legal Letter Initiative
For many Maasai girls, a simple legal letter is the shield that stands between them and FGM or early marriage. Our legal letter initiative gives them the power to say no. And when schools close for the holidays, our programs ensure they stay safe, supported, and surrounded by a community that believes in their dreams.
