Keeping the count!
Each name listed here represents more than just a statistic; it’s a story of a life tragically cut short. These women and girls were mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends whose futures were stolen through senseless violence. By remembering their names, we honor their lives and bring awareness to the ongoing epidemic of femicide in Kenya. Their stories serve as a powerful reminder that we must continue the fight for justice and protection for all women.
