If you educate a woman, you educate a nation.

Last month, we welcomed our fourth cohort of 34 amazing girls into our one-year vocational skills training and mentoring program and added Cosmetology as an add-on skill.

This represents a remarkable 61% increase in the number of girls enrolled for this cohort compared to the cohort who graduated in April!

We are incredibly grateful to the parents who attended our Parents' Day event to learn more about our program and how we can work together
