Educated Girls Become Empowered Women

We greatly appreciate your support that helped a group of young ladies receive training on sexual health from a health worker. Many adolescent girls become pregnant because they lack the information needed to make informed decisions about their sexuality, family planning, and reproductive health and the training they received gave the young ladies the tools they need to make important and educated decisions.

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.
