About Us

Pillars for resilience Kenya is a local grassroots and Trans gender women led Non-Profit Organization that was establish in the Year 2018 by a group of women (GBV survivors) with passion in addressing human rights, Sexual Reproductive health and livelihoods issues among Sexual Gender Minorities, adolescent Trans gender girls and marginalized Teen Mothers.

We work towards creating a safe space for engagement of adolescents, teen mothers and Trans gender women to discuss and debate issues affecting them.

Offering them career guidance and managing their dreams and aspirations is our mandate.

In this changing world, Trans gender women are seen as propellers to the progressive narrative in entrepreneurship. Our programming at PFR brings into context the outcomes derived from creating a conducive environment for Trans gender girls and rural Trans gender women to channel their skills and hobbies towards meaningful income generating activities and enlightens them on crafts, value addition, and business management to support their families. PFR has established a hub where beneficiaries collectively contribute to the enhancement of products and thereby improvement of livelihoods and reduction of stigma and gender discrimination.
