the strike in mulnutrition cases is as a Result of high level of food insecurity alongside extrem poverty hitting the households of single and less empowered child-mothers among other community members. there is a big need for possible intervention to save the lives of children

In an effort to rescue vulnerable girls in candidates classes from missing MOCK examinations among others, we have today payed mock and lunch fees for Evas, a primary seven candidate from a poor family in our rural community. she is now assured of sitting for the examinations!
missing exams due to poverty is denying so many vulnerable school going girls a chance to self-assess their academic abilities and areas of improvement, thus limiting them from setting realistic academic goals and develop strategies to achieve them at an early stage of learning.
a lot of vulnerable girls from poor families in our rural community are still searching for a way to return to school, have uninterupted studies and complete their studies. a horrible situation that elvating child-marriage and teenage pregnancies, and HIV/AIDs cases.

supporting vulnerable school going girls with school fees and sanitary kits is a best way of helping them to get back to school, have uninterupted studies and complete their studies to strongly participate in breaking poverty cycle in their households.
