Boda Girls is a program of the Tiba & Matibabu Foundations that mobilizes the power of sisterhood to support Kenyan women throughout a lifetime. Together, we are creating a Boda Boda (motorcycle) taxi revolution by implementing the first female driver entrepreneurship and health advocate program to connect rural women and girls to education, health, and business opportunities.

Boda Girls Services in One Year:

12 Boda Girls teach 8th-grade girls at 84 schools
Distribute 2000 Days for Girls menstrual kits to help keep girls in school
Provide 5000+ free rides to the hospital for women’s preventative healthcare

Boda Girls Impact Since April 2022: (Matibabu Hospital, SIaya, Kenya)

Doubled number of ultrasounds for pregnant mothers & increased hospital births
Tripled the number of cervical cancer screenings
Increased Boda Girl's weekly wages from $5 to $30- $50

Traditionally, Boda Boda driving has been a “male job” – paying up to ten times as much as traditional "women's work." Through the Boda Girls, women learn to drive, build their taxi businesses and provide safe and free transportation to critical health and education services. BodaGirls is a self-empowering response to women being underserved, unsafe, and marginalized that matches a woman's "sweat equity" and community service. Boda Girls currently has a waiting list of women who want to join the program and communities that want a Boda Girl service.
