Impact

"Last year, my parents tried to get me married off to an elderly man who is also my uncle! They planned my marriage without my knowledge. KIND has really helped me in this predicament by engaging my parents to change their plan and securing a scholarship for me from one of our mentors. Now young girls in my hometown in Mali are taking a cue from my action by rejecting early marriage and my picture and story can now be found in the Malian National Museum."
