Challenge

A number of girls who started lower primary school hardly exit successfully to high school. From grade 4 majority begins to drop out of school. Many get married or abandoned after being impregnated and finally lose interest in going further with education. This ruins their future and hold them captive as they sire many children whom nobody cares for. The results is a delinquent society where girls are burdened to provide for children with no fathers to take care of.

Solution

This project aims to empower 100 girls who are bright and has potential of furthering their education to reach grade 8 and do national exams to open opportunity to join High School. The project will provide sanitary pads, text books, uniform, school desks and other learning materials to avoid being lured for lack of the same. It will also assist in paying tuition fees for the girls as well as training in awareness and hygiene.

Long-Term Impact

The impact will be majority of girls who would otherwise have never had any chance to go to high school will open up greater opportunity to further their education thus making them capable of providing for themselves and their future families and also empower them with relevant knowledge and skills, ensure that they benefit from a full circle of quality education. They will have greater personal power and independence to help them postpone early marriage to an age when they are well prepared.
