Testimonials
We have touched many souls.
Lucy Cherotich
It goes much beyond symbolism into evoking beliefs in women that they are worthy, and capable. I am glad that POWEO is bringing so much positive change to the cause of women.

POWEO is such an amazing organization which makes you grow within, brings beautiful souls together, teaches you the power of womanhood, and makes you believe that soul sisters exist.

POWEO gives you great friends, opens an array of opportunities and all the more makes you believe in yourself. I feel the warmth, love and then truly I understand my rights.

The positivity, the inspiration and the motivation that was lacking in my life, I am lucky to have found it all in the company of my dear soul sisters. POWEO changed my view on inclusivity in leadership.
