Age Is Only But A Number. What This Pretty 16-Year-Old Plans To Do At KICC Will Utterly Wow You

Sometimes the truth burns harder than hot Indian chili. While some of us have lived many years past the adult cut point, yet have nothing tangible to show, a 16-year-old is already impacting positively on the lives of others on an unimaginable scale.

Michelle Wanjiru Kariuki first fell on our radar when she launched Pink Girl Foundation, an organization that improves the lives of girls and women in all aspect of their lives; from education to maternal and child health.

The young philanthropist is now planning to hit Kenyatta International Conference Centre (KICC) with an exhibition that will go down history books.

Miss Kariuki is set to launch the first ever East African Community Expo, specifically targeting women, which will be happening at KICC on 24th of October 2015 at KICC. Already more than 5000 participants have confirmed they will be at KICC come Thursday next week.

Michelle says the aim of the expo is to economically empower women from the greater East African region.

She believes poverty is indiscriminate that’s why she started Pink Gal Africa to provide ANYONE whose life is blighted by poverty, the opportunity to earn a legitimate income through the first ever East African Community Expo.
