Access to libraries 

At present, we are supporting more than 30 primary school librarians, encompassing both males and females, by offering them employment and a modest monthly salary. This initiative is crucial in a region where the unemployment rate hovers around 40%. Each month, our libraries serve as a safe space for studying and provide access to books for 19,000 children across various schools. Additionally, we facilitate the lending of over 3,000 books monthly. Through our 2023 Year of Reading campaign, we are dedicated to expanding our libraries' collections by purchasing additional books for schools.

Girls' Literacy

We're actively conducting tutorials for illiterate and low-literacy girls in grade two, focusing on empowering teachers with active learning techniques, assessment skills to identify struggling students, and phonics teaching methods. Our program currently benefits 206 girls, with a baseline assessment revealing that 90% have reading fluency below minimum standards, including 35% who are completely illiterate.
Our initiative addresses the critical need for literacy improvement among young girls. The 2023 Year of Reading campaign was dedicated to expanding these vital tutorials. By securing further funding, we aim to enhance literacy levels for girls, equipping them with essential reading skills.

Girls’ Cycling Club

The initiative is a biweekly cycling program designed for girls at a secondary school. It equips nine girls with the necessary skills to ride bicycles, allowing them to engage in cycling for enjoyment and potentially qualify for a regional cycling club. This program has been noted to boost their learning confidence, provide a recreational activity, and improve their physical health.
