Members of The Girl Power Project™ in rural Uganda have been hard at work gearing up for Just Like My Child Foundation’s (JLMC) second annual Camp Girl Power!
The top ten performing peer mentors who graduated from the camp last year are busy organizing logistics and activities as they will be the facilitators of the camp for the first time this year! This responsibility provides a chance for them to further practice thier leadership and communication skills. The JLMC team is eagerly anticipating what is sure to be a phenomenal camp program developed by these now seasoned participants.
Throughout the course of 2013, the newest members of the Girl Power Project™ have displayed improved assertiveness, willingness to contribute in group discussions, presentation skills and peer cooperation. They have reported being very excited to attend the camp for the first time where they will get an opportunity to demonstrate their new found skills in front of participants from other schools, compete for top prizes and graduate as peer mentors themselves. It is no wonder the enthusiasm after word quickly spread last year about what a great time the camp turned out to be!
We want to include you in the fun as well, so be sure to tune in soon for our upcoming report on Camp Girl Power 2013!! We hope you will continue to follow our exciting progress and be a critical part of Just Like My Child Foundation's Girl Power Project™ movement!!
We extend our continuing gratitude to our partners, The Collective Heart and Feminine Power whose committment, love and support have helped to make this project possible. Together, we are doing amazing and essential work!!
