SHERise


Empowering Girls to Dream, Decide, and Do
At Sakkhi, we believe that when a girl rises, she lifts her family, her community, and the world with her. SHErise is our flagship initiative aimed at empowering girls between the ages of 12 and 22 to take charge of their lives ā with the right mindset, mentorship, and meaningful opportunities.
Born from a belief that every girl deserves to dream big, SHErise walks alongside young girls through their most transformative years ā offering support in education, emotional well-being, life skills, career guidance, and entrepreneurship.

From confidence and communication to digital literacy and leadership ā we help girls develop essential life and career skills that open doors to opportunity.
š¹ Guide Careers

"Before SHErise, I never thought I could be anything other than what others expected of me. Today, I am studying to become a lawyer and helping younger girls believe in themselves too."
