This film was created with Shining Hope for Communities at the Kibera School for Girls in Nairobi, Kenya. It is based on the song "I Can" by Nas.

Shining Hope combats gender inequality and extreme poverty in the Kibera slum by linking tuition free schools for girls to accessible social services for all. Check us out at http://shininghopeforcommunities.org/.

  • Absolutely FABULOUS!! My Dining For Women group sponsors Molly, one of the 19 girls who started Kindergarten this year. We just got a letter from her. There is some confusion over whether she wants to be a "baker" or a "banker" when she grows up. The technicality is minor. She's getting an education. She can read. She can write. She can dream. She has hope for the future. THANK YOU!!!

  • Awesome! loved the girls head bob @1:20

  • Wonderful. After I watched this, we raised a $50,000 challenge grant for Mother's Day gifts for a new medical clinic. So if you all out there want to send a gift that has meaning, send any amount $5 and up and it will be matched by the foundation for which I work. DO IT> NOW!!! I know you can...

  • That's so awesome. I know I can....

  • Fabulous for its joy and verve. What a lesson to learn. Our Foundation -the Sunflower Foundation (Australia) Inc.- gives small grants for the education of girls and young women. Those interested in our grants should check out our website.
