Kibera Girls Soccer Academy (KGSA) is a free secondary school for girls in Kibera. It grew out of a girls' football programme that Abdul Kassim began in 2002, and in 2006 it opened as the first tuition-free girls' high school in Kibera. The school now teaches about 150 girls a year and opened a dormitory in 2021, so some students board. Besides classes it runs football and other sports, life skills clubs, arts and mentoring, and it is supported by the US-based KGSA Foundation.
