Project Report | Oct 14, 2025
Second Progress Update

By Martha Mwangi | Manager, NGO Partnerships & Project Grants

Although we have not raised additional funds on the GlobalGiving platform since our initial campaign, we are pleased to share that our ongoing projects are progressing well thanks to support from various grants and partnerships. Our dedicated NGOs continue to implement impactful initiatives that are transforming lives in East and West Africa.

Current Projects and Achievements:

  • Teen Mothers’ Skills Training in Morogoro, Tanzania:

Twenty teen mothers are currently undergoing training in detergent making, beauty, and hairdressing. These skills are helping them achieve financial stability and independence. Building on this success, each subsequent year, an additional 40 young women will be empowered through our multi-purpose training salon, further expanding opportunities for youth in the region.

  • Preparations for Brewaniase Vocational Training Centre, Ghana:

We are in the final stages of planning and preparations to begin construction of the Brewaniase Vocational Training Centre. Once completed, the center will equip 24 girls (up to 20 years old) with dressmaking and hairdressing skills, and provide essential training to 100 youth with other trades. This initiative aims to tackle youth unemployment and stimulate economic growth in Nkwanta.

  • Beauty and Hairdressing Skills in Sachangwan, Kenya:

Five young women and girls are currently acquiring beauty therapy and hairdressing skills in Sachangwan division. These skills will enable them to establish their own beauty shops, ensuring a sustainable income and greater economic independence.

We remain committed to supporting vulnerable communities and empowering youth and women with the skills they need to improve their livelihoods. We thank our supporters for your continued interest and encouragement as we work toward creating sustainable, long-term change.
