Through advocacy and one-on-one conversations with parents, leaders, and girls, we’ve created a program that drives a cultural shift in communities to support girls’ education. We also offer scholarships and free school kits to ease financial burdens. Read more about our strategy.
We train young leaders—peer mentors, both boys and girls—on the topic of reproductive health education, enabling them to connect with their peers in a relatable and approachable manner. Read more about how our program effectively reduces teenage pregnancies and helps girls stay in school.
We offer vocational education and business development classes to empower teenage mothers to become financially stable and care for themselves and their children. Read more about the essence and design of our program.
Our long-term dream is to establish a transformative boarding secondary school that offers a unique, comprehensive curriculum designed to empower and equip young girls for success in all aspects of their lives. While our curriculum will cover traditional academic subjects, it will also place a strong emphasis on critical areas such as sexual education, girls’ empowerment, self-confidence, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy. Through this holistic approach, we aim to develop well-rounded, resilient young women who will become leaders in their communities, their country, and the world.
Our innovative educational model will have a profound impact on these girls, preparing them to excel not only academically but also as advocates for girls’ education and empowerment in Cameroon and beyond. We will ensure that each student receives the support and guidance needed to gain admission to top colleges and universities—both locally and internationally—providing them with the opportunities to pursue higher education and fulfill their potential.
The time to invest in the education of tomorrow’s leaders is now. Join us in providing these life-changing opportunities for girls in Cameroon, and together we can shape a future where young women are empowered to lead, inspire, and transform their communities and the world.
