Kanita Benson is a speaker, strategist, cross-cultural missionary, educator and global advocate for women and girls.
She founded She Saves a Nation, following the Kenyan tribal clashes of 2007-8, which resulted in the displacement of over 600,000 Kenyans.
Serving Kikuyus in resettlement on a mission trip, led to the launch of a global movement to empower refugee, internally displaced and marginalized girls who will change their nation and the world through leadership development, educational empowerment, trauma care, health education and international relief.
She earned a Master’s degree in Leadership & Organizational Effectiveness at Eastern University, and is currently attending Fuller Theological Seminary studying Theology & Missiology toward the Doctor of Intercultural Studies.
Kanita leads to shift the trajectory of the lives of every unseen girl, serving the margins, restoring their voice and inspiring them to become takers of destiny.
