KEEP Event: Malala Movie

On Wednesday, October 14, 2015, over 40 friends of KEEP gathered to watch and discuss the film He Named Me Malala at the Jacob Burns Theater. This film profiles the extraordinary life of Malala Yousafzai, a Pakistani teenager who survived the Taliban’s attempt to kill her for speaking out on behalf of girls’ education. Subsequently becoming the youngest ever Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, Malala now runs the Malala Fund “to ensure every girl has access to 12 years of free, safe, quality primary and secondary education.” Dovetailing with KEEP’s mission, Malala’s goals inspired film attendees and reinforced the importance of supporting the Kakenya Center for Excellence.
