Now seems like a good time to report of some of the adjoining work that goes around providing orphans with education. Over the last year we’ve supported over a hundred young women to get their birth documentation with many of these having their full documents now. On top of this we’ve supported a number of cases of child sexual exploitation, as those abused need help in claiming their rights. The process goes hand in hand with making sure that young people, particularly orphans, are able to access education, as the barriers they face without birth certificates are so pervasive that their life opportunities pivot on this issue.
As we seek to help vulnerable children we’ve been working to ensure that they are educated on a range of Sexual and Reproductive Health & Rights. Our mentors help to deliver a curriculum that is engaging and empathetic as well as educational. Young people have been singing, dancing, composing poetry and dramas about the issues they face and with our support are aiming to overcome!
Thank you once again to all our donors (did you know that new monthly donors have a first month matched DOUBLING the value – tell a friend/family :-) . Thanks for making a difference.
