PARENTS BECOMING CHAMPIONS FOR CHANGE

By Othieno Gerald | Project Leader

Dear Friends,

This reporting period demonstrated the growing role parents are playing in protecting girls from child marriage. Through community meetings, family dialogues, and awareness sessions, many families gained a deeper understanding of the importance of education and the long-term benefits it provides for girls and their communities.

Parents shared their hopes and aspirations for their daughters and expressed a stronger commitment to supporting their academic journeys. Many families are now prioritizing education and recognizing that keeping girls in school creates opportunities for a brighter future. These positive changes are helping reduce the social and economic pressures that often lead to early marriage.

Girls continue to benefit from mentorship, guidance, and encouragement that strengthen their confidence, resilience, and determination to succeed.

Thank you for supporting this important transformation and helping create lasting change.
