About Us

Who We Are

EmpowerHer Foundation is a women-focused, community-driven organization dedicated to empowering girls and women through education, economic opportunities, mentorship, and leadership development. Founded by Mary Mulinge, a passionate advocate for gender equality and inclusive growth, the foundation works to create sustainable pathways that help women unlock their potential and transform their communities.

At EmpowerHer Foundation, we believe that when women thrive, communities rise. Our programs are designed to address real challenges faced by women and girls—from limited access to education and training, to economic barriers and social inequalities. We create safe spaces, supportive networks, and practical opportunities that help women gain confidence, skills, and financial independence.
