Write Life Kenya was represented by Maryfridah Kiaira, who contributed through mental health facilitation, experiential learning, and literary donation.

Raising the Boychild, Strengthening the Man: Reflections from the Mega Event 2025
On Saturday, 15th November 2025, a powerful movement unfolded at Elsa Hotel Meru, one that brought together young men, mentors, faith leaders, educators, and mental health advocates under one purpose: to create a safe space where men can speak, feel, and be heard. Hosted by the inspiring Edith Sonnie, the Mega Event 2025 gathered over 60 participants for an afternoon of honest conversations, talent showcases, teachings on relationships, leadership, and emotional wellness. It was a profound reminder that when we invest in the boychild, we strengthen the man, and ultimately transform the community.
