It is said that When you Educate a girl you Educate a nation. Lizzy is a beautiful little girl. She will be five years old in March 2023. She is yet to start school. We where told that, When other children are going to school she will stand outside their house be looking at them going to school. She will sometime touch their school bag's too. The Fageli Good Health Advocacy and Lifestyle Foundation was told that the mother has refused to enroll her in school because she is not old enough. We visited Lizzy's home and enquired from her Mum. She confirmed the report we got to be true. I explained to her the efficacy and benefits of early childhood education, how if properly handled and early her daughter will grow up to be very useful to the nation. Lizzy's mum regreted her actions and asked for help saying it's not easy to raise money for school essentials. The Foundation took Lizzy to a near by school, paid her school fees and other materials. Her face light up with Joy when a school bag, books, pencil, biscuits and juice was given to her. The very first thing she did was, open the bag, put the books and pencil inside then held on to it passionately. Throughout our stay with them she didn't drop the bag.
Lizzy will resume pre-nursery school properly on Monday 24th September 2022. In the world today education is the best gift you can give to a girl child, because, An educated girl has direction, she has hope, she will become a mentor to other girls, She Will Change The WORLD!!. When you invest in a girls education, she feeds herself, her children,her community and her nation please help Fageli Foundation Educate and secure The futures of the less privileged girl child's in our community. Your support and donations will be put to good use. Thank you.
