In Nigeria, millions of girls are out of school, facing risks like early marriage and economic exclusion. In Makurdi, our Keep Girls in School Through Sports project is reversing this trend.
By combining football with academic mentoring, life-skills education, and community engagement, we help 300 vulnerable girls stay in school and reach their full potential. We train teachers, involve parents, and create safe, inclusive spaces for girls to thrive.
This is urgent work. Every day, another girl is at risk of dropping out. Your donation brings immediate change—keeping girls in school, building leadership, and transforming communities.
Don’t wait—support girls’ education and empowerment today. Your gift makes a world of difference.
