Boys traditionally receive preferential access to educational opportunities. According to UNESCO 2021 statistics, 9 million girls aged 6-11 are out of school in sub-Saharan Africa, compared to 6 million boys. Your generous support will help send Fudia to school - providing tuition, transportation, lunch, books, etc. This will help ensure she is fully equipped for the upcoming school year.
Families with limited funds to educate their children focus on sending their boys to school, and many girls who start school drop out because their parents cannot afford to continue to pay for their education. Fudia's parents do not earn enough income to meet their basic needs and cannot financially support her schooling. This project will provide a full scholarship for Fudia to cover her tuition, books, school supplies, lunches, and related school expenses for the 2023-24 school year.
This project will ensure that Fudia stays in school for the 2023-24 school year. Our support will provide a full scholarship for Fudia to cover her tuition, books, school supplies, lunches, and related school expenses.
The long-term impact of this project is the transformation of at-risk girls into educated, self-sufficient, and empowered women who become pillars of their families, communities, and the nation. As mothers, educated women improve their families' health, well-being, and economic stability. Educated girls become informed citizens who participate in civic life and contribute to the progress of their nation. By breaking the cycle of poverty, this project creates a ripple effect of positive change.
