This #InternationalWomensDay, we celebrate ALL women & girls: their rights, equality & empowerment! At @ACFinKenya we champion women’s rights through programs that uplift, empower & create lasting change. When women thrive, communities flourish. ✊ #IWD2025 #ForAllWomenAndGirls

Hunger is rising—but women are the key to change. 💪 Programs like GENTU, funded by @canadadev, show that when women have access to land, education & resources, they can break the cycle of hunger & lift entire communities. Ending hunger starts with women. 💙💚 #IWD2025
