Our Projects
Bridging Cycles
Bridging Cycles is dedicated to enhancing the menstrual health and well-being of immigrant, homeless, and refugee women in Toronto. Through comprehensive menstrual health education, awareness of menstrual-related diseases, and sexual education, we aim to empower these women with vital knowledge.
We provide sanitary pad distribution and mentorship, ensuring every woman can access the resources and support she needs to thrive. Bridging Cycles is more than just a project—it's a commitment to dignity, health, and empowerment for women in our community.
Rebirth of a Queen
She matters. Rafiki Bridge supports gender-based violence (GBV) and sexual assault survivors in Kenya. We assist women's shelters affected through advocacy, outreach, and material support. We strive to create safe spaces where survivors can access the resources and support they need to recover.
​
Objectives:
​
-
Provide immediate support and assistance to women shelters affected by GBV and sexual assault.
-
Raise awareness about the prevalence of GBV and promote community involvement in prevention efforts.
-
Empower survivors to seek help and access essential services for their recovery.

Youth Sexual Health Mentorship Program
We address the challenges adolescent girls from rural and low-income communities face through our evidence-based Adolescent Girls Mentorship Program. We've distributed 200 Dignity Kits to communities in Kenya, providing essential resources for menstrual hygiene and mentorship sessions covering vital topics like sexual health education and menstrual hygiene.
​
Each session engages 20-40 girls, equipping them with both sanitary equipment and invaluable guidance. Our objective is clear: to empower adolescent girls with essential knowledge, foster an environment of open dialogue, and ultimately enable them to make informed decisions about their bodies and futures.
Endometriosis Awareness Workshops
Rafiki Bridge's Endometriosis Workshops and Awareness Webinars are designed to educate and empower women and girls by spreading awareness about endometriosis. These sessions create a safe space for participants to share their experiences and journeys, fostering a supportive community.
Through open discussions and personal stories, Rafiki Bridge aims to raise awareness, promote understanding, and help women and girls navigate the challenges of living with endometriosis.
