Becoming (Jan–Mar): Confidence. Identity. Cultural pride.
Building (Apr–May): A guided capstone project like a book, website, workshop, or initiative
We don’t just inspire girls—we equip them to lead, speak, and build what outlasts the systems that weren’t designed for them.
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.
We serve African girls aged 13–18 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.
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.
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.
