Dear Donors,
Thank you for your concern for adolescent girls whose education is threatened by poverty and early pregnancy. Your support reflects the urgent need to keep girls in school and protect their futures.
Economic hardship forces many Nigerian families to withdraw their daughters from secondary school. Girls who drop out are up to four times more likely to become pregnant before age 19. Early motherhood remains a leading cause of death among girls aged 15–19 and severely limits educational and career prospects. This project will provide full scholarships covering tuition, books, and uniforms for high-risk girls. Each participant will receive structured mentorship sessions addressing reproductive health knowledge, confidence-building, and decision-making skills. Parents and teachers will also be engaged to create supportive learning environments that encourage school completion.
At present, no donations have been received, and funding is required before scholarships and mentorship activities can begin. We kindly invite you to support or share this initiative so more girls can remain in school and build secure futures.
With sincere appreciation,
Ugbede-Ojo Dominic Kadiri
