We empower Maasai girls in Tanzania who are orphaned and/or living in abusive conditions to break the cycle of extreme poverty and oppression by providing them with a safe and nurturing new home with access to education, medical care and critical life skills. Our vision is to provide: (1) a safe haven for girls who are being forced into early marriage or are running away from forced FGM; (2) mentoring in assertiveness, life skills, and study habits; (3) family counseling to get parents on board with their girls'​ education; (4) a study hall that includes tutoring and study resources; (5) after school classes for girls who are behind in their education, due to the lack of schooling prior to being rescued; (6) business and technical training so girls can become self-sustaining, even if they don't excel in academics. (7) the girls stay at MGRC until they achieve these goals.
