Early Marriages violates girl's rights to health, education and opportunity. It exposes girls to violence throughout their lives. This ward lack the awareness on the ills of early marriages; and the vulnerable families can't afford to provide school supplies to their daughter so they ended up on marrying off their daughter for a bride price
