Hello everyone! We are proud to say that we are now celebrating Ten Years of work for girls in Malawi! It has been amazing how much we have grown and we cannot wait to continue to expand in the coming years!
At the beginning of this year, we now have 175 scholarships for girls to secondary school at 10 secondary schools in 5 districts in Malawi. AGE Africa is maintaining and growing numbers at all schools, including the three added last year, and plans to expand its program in the Mangochi district soon.
As well, we over 570 girls are participating in our unique CHATS: Creating Healthy Approaches to Success Curriculum. The girls are learning critical life skills and receive career guidance, allowing them to have more confidence and opportunities for the future.
Additionally, 22 of our students are currently supported in their endeavors in higher education including university and teacher training college. Our alumnae are also giving back to AGE Africa, as 73 of them are trained CHATs educators, mentoring the girls of their homes. We have started to reach many girls, changing their live but this year we continue to go girl by girl, school by school, village by village, transforming a nation together.
