Thanks to your generous support, we are witnessing a profound shift in our community: a sharp reduction in drug abuse among girls. Just months ago, many young girls—some as young as 13—were trapped in a devastating cycle. Driven by poverty and hunger, they fell prey to sexual exploitation, which led to rampant misuse of abortion drugs. Tragically, several cases ended at the grave’s mouth, with girls losing their lives or suffering life-altering injuries.
Your intervention changed that. By providing meals at local safe centers and covering school fees, you removed the desperation that pushed girls into harmful relationships. Now, instead of seeking dangerous substances, these girls attend classes, eat regularly, and dream again. Over forty former victims have returned to school, and peer support groups now openly discuss reproductive health and drug dangers—taboos just months ago.
The clinic reports a 75% drop in emergency cases linked to abortion drug abuse. Mothers tell us their daughters come home safely, not hiding in shame. We are not just saving lives; we are restoring futures. But the need continues. With your ongoing help, we can enroll more girls, sustain feeding programs, and expand counseling. Thank you for pulling our daughters from the edge of death and placing them back in the classroom—where they truly belong.
