In Nigeria, millions of girls leave school early due to poverty, early marriage, and lack of opportunities. Without education or training, many struggle with unemployment and poverty. This project will provide 1,500 girls with vocational skills such as mechanic, ICT, & catering while keeping them in school. With both classroom learning & practical training, they will gain income-earning skills and a chance to complete their education.Support is needed now to prevent more girls from dropping Out
Girls in rural Nigeria often leave school early due to poverty, child marriage, or pressure to work. Many lack practical skills to earn income and face unemployment. This cycle of poverty reduces their chances of independence and contributes to high dropout rates. Education without practical training leaves girls unprepared for real job markets, while lack of training alone keeps them out of formal education. Without both, many remain trapped in hardship.
The project will combine classroom learning with vocational training, keeping 1,500 girls in school while giving them practical skills. Training areas include tailoring, mechanic, ICT, and catering, which are in high demand in local markets. Each girl will receive tools, training materials, and mentoring. This will help them stay in school, graduate with skills, and begin small income-generating activities. The program creates a pathway from school to self-reliance for disadvantaged girls.
With education and practical skills, girls will be able to complete their studies, secure jobs, or start small businesses. This reduces early marriage and unemployment, while strengthening household income. Educated girls often reinvest in their families, improving health, nutrition, and schooling for the next generation. In the future, communities benefit from a new generation of skilled, educated women who can contribute to economic growth and social stability.
