WISER is a Kenyan NGO founded in 2006 that has established a strong community partnership in Muhuru Bay where the organization has built a private secondary boarding school for girls that it operates in addition to other community programs focusing on education, health, and economic development. WISER's mission is to improve educational, economic, and health outcomes for girls; create gender allies in boys; and promote community-wide enhancements in health and development.
WISER Girls 2011
In additional to the current 30 female first-level secondary students in the WISER school, 30 more girls are being inducted in January 2011.
Students are recruited from 14 primary schools in Muhuru Bay on full scholarship supported by international organizations and WISER partners.
Most students entering WISER require rigorous re-orientation to a higher standard of learning and a dedicated set of role models to raise their expectations of their educational potential.
This is what makes WISER different and unique, in that it believes together with the right space, right teachers, and renewed mindset and culture of learning, every student can become “WISER” than their expectations and qualify for post-secondary opportunities in university, college and promising careers.
