VIEW New V-Day Kenya Image Gallery

In August, 2009, Eve Ensler and the V-Day team visited the V-Day Safe Houses in Narok and Sakutiek, and the Dolphin Anti-Rape and AIDS Control Outreach program in Nairobi, which V-Day helps fund.

In her Update from Kenya, Eve wrote "I want you to know that this has been a week of miracles. Our time in Kenya revealed that our work is bearing fruit, huge delicious successful fruit...We witnessed Agnes who is now a great leader, Winnie and Duncan deeply empowered and strong, and Mumbi, fierce and kind and inspirational."

World renowned photographer and V-Day activist Paula Allen joined V-Day and documented the incredible trip.
