Educated Girls Become Empowered Women

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.

Janet

We believe that every girl deserves a chance to get an education; no girl should ever be told she is not able to go to school.   Each year of education a young woman receives significantly increases her earning potential.  We are helping girls break out of the vicious cycle that entraps unskilled and resource-poor girls.  

Your continued support is giving more and more girls an opportunity to get an education and have a better future.  We know that educated girls become empowered women and are the pillars of their families, communities and the nation.

On November 20th, this movement placed over 100,000 pencils into the hands 

of children across Sierra Leone in 20 schools.

Each pencil tells a story — of hope, opportunity, and possibility. 

Education is more than lessons — it’s liberation.

Every $25 helps children write their dreams.
