Bridge Educational Gaps for 300 Girls in Kenya.

Dear friends

Our wonderful girls at Elwak and Al-Uweis Primary schools have continued to make good progress. Performance in all the three subjects have improved overall and considering their starting position, we are very proud with their achievement. According to the school records and our own data 80% of the pupils have shown remarkable improvement in their exams this year. One such example is Hamida.                                      Hamida is a class 8 pupil at Al-uweis primary school. Her family lives nearby the school. Hamida’s father is a small scale businessman while her mother and step-mother are both housewives. Hamida is a very hardworking girl who comes from a vulnerable family, therefore she was identified by the school administration to be included in the programme. Since Hamida’s enrolment to the GENCAD intervention program in 2015, the schools head teacher, Mr. Hassow, and her class teacher Mr. David reported great improvement in her performance. Hamida’s class position ranking has increased by 60% due to the increase of her performance in Maths, English and Kiswahili.

Generally, we are very pleased and excited for Hamida’s improved performance.

The evident positive impact of the programme on the lives of the pupils makes us be proud and motivated to continue helping girls around. Without your support this wouldn’t have been possible. Thank you our esteemed donors and supporters for having confidence our programme and with your continued support we can reach more girls in and around Elwak Town, our current project location. Next term, we are planning to enroll about 30 girls in the lower classes to give them a firm foundation. We are very excited about that and plans are in place to
