Giving a hand up
Not a hand out

Mama Biashara works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya.

We give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. We offer training and employment in everything from phone repairs to manicures.

We have built a children’s home, which we still support. We’ve created water-harvesting solutions for drought-devastated areas.

And we are starting to use the Mama B method to help those fleeing FGM, forced marriage, sex slavery and child rape.

The bad news is that Mama B wants your money

The good news, is that we will do more with it than you could ever imagine was possible.

Yes, we want, we NEED your money. We do appreciate we are in a long line. BUT – 100% of your donation goes to saving these women in Kenya. No one is paid anything in Mama Biashara.

And just consider this … the next time you get a double latte in Starbucks, that money is enough to pay for the transport of a woman and her children to get them out of danger. The average cost of a round of drinks will rescue a woman and set her up in a viable business. Even in Wetherspoons.

Let’s not think about how many lives a pair of Air Jordans could save.
