Build What Outlasts. Become Who Leads.
A virtual leadership school for African girls, ages 15–18, ready to discover their voice, build something real, and become the woman they were born to be.
WHAT IS OUTLAST SCHOOL?
This is not a course. It’s a calling.
The Outlast School is a 3-years virtual leadership academy that gives African girls the tools, guidance, and sisterhood to step into their future with purpose. Over two transformational semesters, each girl journeys through:
Semester 1 (Jan–May) – Becoming & Building
Phase 1 – Becoming (Jan–Mar): The Girl Who Outlasts
Explore identity, confidence, and cultural pride
Discover strengths, values, and dreams
Build the self before building the project
Phase 2 – Building (Apr–May): The Legacy Project
Track: Author
Build something real: a published book
Mentorship from aligned women trained in our values
Semester 2 (Sept–Dec) – Selling & Scaling
Learn how to market and sell the book created in Semester
Apply leadership and entrepreneurial skills in a real-world context
We don’t just inspire girls—we equip them to lead, speak, and build what outlasts the systems that weren’t designed for them.
WHY WE EXIST
Because we’re done waiting.
Too many African girls are taught to:
Shrink to be safe
Leave the continent to succeed
Survive instead of build
Outlast is the answer to that. We don’t fix broken systems. We replace them—with something rooted in vision, voice, and value. This is not reform. This is legacy work.
WHO WE SERVE
We see the spark—no matter where it lives.
We serve African girls aged 15–18 across the continent and the diaspora. We don’t choose based on grades or resumes. We choose based on grit, vision, and voice. Whether she’s quiet or bold, unsure or ready, an A student or a C student—if she has a whisper inside her saying there’s more—she belongs here.
HOW IT WORKS
The Outlast Experience
Semester 1: Becoming
She builds confidence, explores her identity, and defines her personal mission.
Semester 2: Building
She chooses a project track (Author, Builder, Teacher, or Changemaker) and creates something real—guided by a mentor who’s walked that path.
The Outcome:
She leaves with a completed project, a stronger voice, and the belief that she can build legacy—right where she is.
WHO WE SERVE
Born From the Story of a Girl Who Wasn’t Picked
The Outlast School was founded by Sandra Kemayou—a girl who once failed sixth grade, doubted her voice, and felt invisible in the system.
Years later, she became a global success coach and built a 7-figure business teaching other women to rise.
Outlast is the school she wishes existed when she was 14.
And now it belongs to every girl who carries a quiet fire—and just needs a place to light it.
FOR PARENTS & GUARDIANS
If you’re wondering if this is right for your daughter—thank you.
You care. And that makes you part of this journey.
The Outlast School was designed to honor your hopes for her future.
We don’t ask her to be perfect—we simply invite her to become.
If she’s ready to grow, to build, and to be guided by strong women—you can trust she’ll be seen, supported, and stretched in all the right ways.
We promise to walk with her—and we thank you for letting us.
FOR TEACHERS, AUNTIES, & ADVOCATES
Sometimes, a girl doesn’t yet see in herself what others can. If you know a girl who needs this—whose potential is hiding in silence or struggle—please nominate her. Your belief might be the reason she applies.
