TLM Group Savings and Loans
TLM’s microfinance program known as the Groups Savings and Loans (GSL), has brought a positive holistic change within households in the communities.
Global G.L.O.W Clubs
Believing in the mission of Global G.L.O.W to provide holistic full-fledged provision of services to support girls’ well-being and empowerment, we believe in TLM that our mission aligns greatly with that of Global G.L.O.W.
Healthy G.L.O.W Clubs
These are programs that help the girl child to make informed decisions and choices concerning her life. Being a big part of the Global G.L.O.W Programing, Healthy GLOW strives to give girls the information they need to stay healthy in their everyday life.
Sanitary Towel Production
Many girls in the rural areas of Kenya miss out on achieving their professional dreams due to missing out on classes when they are menstruating. Most of these girls have not seen or used menstrual supplies until TLM provided them with sanitary towels (pads), because their parents had to choose between buying sanitary towels or buying food. Our goal is to transition from providing disposable sanitary towels to washable reusable sanitary towels to increase the sustainability of the program, and generate income where the menstrual supplies can be sold.
Safe Spaces
The availability of having a safe space in any child’s life is an assurance that the mental health of a child is catered for. TLM in partnership with Global GLOW has come up with various safe spaces within the community that gives the child the unlimited permission to express themselves through storytelling, exam revision, public speaking, acting , poetry, reading and discussion of story books, watching of educational material and finally, a safe space where they can come for counseling.
Civic Education & Governance
TLM is has been working with various communities in Kisumu Kenya in advocating for good governance amongst the community leaders.
Being a political hotspot, Kisumu has had negative reports on violence during the general and presidential elections. TLM has come up with a way to mobilize different leaders within the community to come and speak/teach each other on various topics that lead to peaceful elections.
