Empowering Dreams,
Transforming Futures
DADA supports teenage mothers facing pregnancy, early marriage, and school dropout in rural Kenya through counseling, education, daycare, and vocational training.
We believe every young mother deserves the chance to rebuild her future — with dignity, support, and real opportunity.

Time management, financial literacy, parenting skills, and peer support groups to build long-term resilience.
Awareness campaigns challenging stigma and norms around teenage pregnancy and early marriage across Kenya.
Why DADA Exists
Dawn of Dreams Africa emerged from the stark reality of teenage pregnancy in rural Kenya. Government programs alone have been insufficient — young mothers return to school without childcare, fall behind, and drop out. DADA closes this gap with holistic, sustained support.
Psychological support addressing stress, trauma, and rejection faced by young mothers.
Partnerships with schools and government agencies to bring girls back to formal education.
Vocational training and financial literacy for long-term self-reliance.
Challenging cultural norms and reducing stigma to create systemic change.
The Crisis Demands Action Now
Kenya records over 300,000 teenage pregnancies annually. Many of these girls drop out of school, face mental health challenges, and have no structured support to rebuild their lives. Rural areas like the highlands of Bomet, Kericho, and Narok are especially underserved — often overlooked because of perceived economic stability from tea farming.
Built by Someone Who Lived It
Vicky Chepkirui grew up in Bomet County and witnessed first-hand the devastation of teenage pregnancy and early marriage. With a background in accounting, volunteer experience across Denver and Nairobi, and deep community roots — she founded DADA to build the change she once needed.
