Mugoiri Old Girls Association

Women of the Light is an anthology made up of inspiring stories told by Alumnae of Mugoiri Girls High School, a national school in Muranga. This book, published by the Mugoiri Old Girls Association (MOGA) is just but a snippet of how life after high school unfolded for a few of the alumnae; the seas they have swum through, mountains climbed and a few valleys traversed too. They tell us how they have continued to emerge victorious through it all from the plains of Samburu, to the hills of Muranga, the law courts of Nairobi and treacherous Garissa, to Mount St. Scholastica in Kansas and the suburbs in Alpharetta, Georgia. Journey with them as they share nuggets of wisdom and resilience in each of the stories. This, here below isn't just a book. It is stories from the hearts of 14 of our Alumnae. How their resilience helped them to overcome obstacles.

• To encourage the young ones behind us. That the sun may set, but it sure does rise again.
• To claim their space in this twisted wide wild world.
• To claim to be heard.
• To claim to be different.
• To claim to bring change.
• To truly pursue their dreams with the knowledge and confidence that are unlimited!

All proceeds from this book go towards the MOGA bursary fund to educate students in need at the school.
