As we approach Mother’s Day, we thank those at the Centre who mother the children there, providing care and guidance for so many young people. We also think about the next generation of mothers – the young women at the Centre. Research has shown that when girls are educated and delay parenthood, they and their children thrive.
The Centre held a retreat for adolescent girls to discuss healthy relationships, self-confidence and career options. They shared experiences, discussed and role-played while learning how to plan for their futures. You support makes events like this possible!
A gift to the CYEC in honor of your mother is a meaningful way to let her know you appreciate the role of mothers. From now until Mother’s Day, all new recurring gifts will be matched, and all gifts help us build a healthy future for these children.
