BIG WINS & NEW HORIZONS

Our flagship initiative, Play & Excel: Fostering Success Through Sports, continues to provide a safe haven for over 60 vulnerable girls from IDP camps and low-income households in Kaduna State. Thanks to your unwavering support, this quarter brought massive breakthroughs across both education and sports!

20 Academic Scholarships Awarded: Education remains our top priority. This quarter, we successfully secured scholarships for 20 of our girls, removing the financial barriers keeping them from staying enrolled in school.

Expanding into Volleyball: We are thrilled to officially introduce volleyball to our community following a strategic partnership meeting with the Nigeria Volleyball Federation! To kick off this exciting expansion, our girls attended the National Beach Volleyball Championship at Murtala Square, Kaduna. Experiencing the elite level of discipline, teamwork, and passion firsthand left them deeply inspired and buzzing to hit the courts.

Weekly Mentorship & Training: Alongside our athletic training, our regular sessions at Narayi continue to thrive, pairing sports with crucial monthly health workshops covering menstrual hygiene, life skills and personal safety.

Thank you for being the driving force behind these new sports horizons and academic opportunities. You are giving these young girls the confidence to smash their goals and dream far beyond their economic challenges.
