Thanks to your donations several young ladies received reusable sanitary kits, which will keep them from missing school.

Abibatu is one of the young ladies that received a reusable sanitary kit.  She just started college this fall and is studying journalism.  She enjoys reading, cooking, and singing. 

Isata, pictured here, is another one of the young ladies that received a reusable sanitary kit.  She is in class six and enjoys singing and math. She hopes to become a doctor when she grows up.

Thanks to your support, the FAWE students are receiving the vital computer training that they need.  Proficiency in computers in schools, workplaces and in the society as a whole is an absolute requirement for success in today's technology-aided society. Exposing kids especially girls at a younger age plays a very vital role as it helps them to have the basics in computing and also giving them the opportunity to overcome the challenge of computer illiteracy at a very young age.

We greatly appreciate your support that is helping girls get ready for school this year.  Two of the young ladies that are receiving school support are Tewoh and Marian.

Tewoh is getting ready to start class 6 this year.  She loves going to school and would like to become a politician when she completes her education.

Thanks to your ongoing support, more young women are getting their education.  Konnie and Janet received scholarships and are both very thankful for the support they received for school this year.

Konnie is finishing her second year of Junior Secondary School (JSS2) this spring and hopes to become a teacher when she completes her education.

Janet is finishing her 6th grade (class 6) year this spring and hopes to become a nurse when she grows up.

March 8th is International Women's Day.  On this day, we celebrate the achievements of women globally. 

For 12 years, we have been helping to educate girls. We strategically have impacted the destinies of hundreds of young girls, helping them complete their basic schooling.  

In Sierra Leone, as in many parts of the world, girls' education plays a pivotal role in driving societal progress, fostering economic development, and promoting gender equality. Despite significant strides in recent years, barriers to girls' education persist in Sierra Leone, making it crucial to understand and address the importance of prioritizing girls' education in the country.

Thank for your continued support that is enabling students, like Christiana, to complete their education. Christiana received a scholarship for her final year of Senior Secondary School.  Her next step will be to work toward becoming a banker, her desired future profession.

Please watch this video of appreciation from Christiana.  In the video she says:

Thank you so much for donating towards this project - to help provide scholarships for girls.
