The Need
Young women who drop out of school often face a lifetime of dependency and poverty, lacking the skills to participate in the local economy.
What We Provide
Hands-on training in marketable trades including tailoring, hairdressing, baking, and crafts, alongside basic business and financial literacy.
Who It Supports
Out-of-school girls, young mothers, and marginalized women.

Program Outcomes

- Restored dignity and confidence

I felt useless when I had to leave school. Now, I make and sell clothes. I can feed my child and I have a skill no one can take away from me.
