Project Report | Oct 27, 2025

Dear Family, Friends and Supporters of Serendipity Healthcare Foundation,

We write to you today with profound gratitude and an urgent message: the fight to secure the future of the girl child is being won, and your support is the force making it happen.

We are thrilled to share the latest progress report which details how your commitment is directly translating aspirations into reality, protecting young girls from systemic barriers and the devastating cycle of early marriage.

This report details the transformative achievements we’ve realized this reporting period:

  • Protection and Potential: This is more than a number—it’s a lifeline. We have now provided a vital shield for over 2,500 young girls and 1,000 young boys across 7 community schools in 10 local government councils in Kano this year 2025. Your generosity is protecting their childhood, defending their right to an education, and offering a powerful alternative to early marriage for the girls.
  • Hope Delivered: Our most recent effort brought immediate, tangible change to the Shehu Ringim Science and Mathematics School. For a focused investment of just $400, we were able to fully equip over 1,000 pupils with essential tools—textbooks, writing materials, and teaching aids—igniting hope and restoring dignity to their classrooms. Every item delivered is a barrier broken.

The attached report, Project Report: Advancing Girl Child Education and Early Marriage Prevention, provides a full breakdown of our activities and the focused budget that drove this success.

Every notebook, every textbook, every dollar you entrust to us becomes a crucial weapon in this fight for equality. Thank you for standing with us to champion their future.

We look forward to discussing the next, ambitious phase of this critical work with you soon.

Sincerely,

Adama Faruk
