This project supports girls in LowerBambara Community in SierraLeone who are at risk of dropping out of school by providing scholarships and books /school supplies. The project also provides vocational training and business development opportunities. Traditionally, girls have been offered less educational opportunities than boys. Where family funds are limited, preference has been given to boys. This project is helping to level the playing field by promoting and supporting the education of girls
