Meet Moureen

Moureen Achieng Ouma
Carpenter and Joiner, BuildHer 2024 Class

“Before joining BuildHer, I earned less than KES 150 a day from beadwork and could barely provide for my two children as a single mother. Training was tough, I worked casual jobs, faced personal loss, and even lost my home to floods. But with BuildHer’s support, I pushed through. Now, I earn up to KES 2,500 a day from furniture finishing work and can fully support my family. BuildHer didn’t just teach me carpentry, it gave me stability, confidence, and a future filled with possibility.”
