From London to Kenya 🇬🇧🇰🇪💛
One of the most meaningful moments of my time in Kenya was visiting Brilliant Angel School in Githogoro.
What made the visit so powerful was learning the story behind the school.
It was started by a group of young people, many still in their 20s, who came from the same kind of challenging environment as the children they now support. They understood first-hand how easy it can be for children to feel that their future is already decided for them.
So they decided to do something about it.
They started with just 20 children. Today, they are supporting and educating around 400 children.
Their goal is simple but incredibly powerful: to show these children that where they start in life does not have to determine where they end up.
Visiting the school, meeting the children and listening to the people behind it really stayed with me.
It also reminded me why I created The Nubian Princesses in the first place. Our mission has always been about more than dolls and books. It is about confidence, representation, education and helping children imagine a bigger future for themselves.
And of course, Sigi came with me too. 👑💛
Kenya has given me a lot to think about — not only about where The Nubian Princesses can grow, but about the kind of impact I want the brand to have as it grows.
This is only the beginning. 🇰🇪✨
