Girl Child Mentorship
Through our Mentorship Program in Malawi & Kenya, we educate girls about taboo topics such as child marriage, child trafficking, puberty and menstruation, domestic violence, including rape and female genital mutilation.
Gender inequality exists worldwide, but particularly throughout Africa it is a major issue. Girls are denied so many opportunities, including their right to access education. Without education, a girl’s future is limited and she is more easily forced into the issues of child marriage and child trafficking.
Our Girl Child Mentorship sessions focus on improving girls and young women’s empowerment and education. So far thousands of girls have been reached through our Mentorship teachings. Girls are educated about such topics as child marriage, child trafficking, puberty and menstruation, domestic violence, rape and female genital mutilation.
For many young girls in Africa, they have no one to speak with about such topics so these mentorship days alongside counselling sessions are a safe space to learn, ask questions and learn to be proud that they are female. Our Founder is extremely passionate about Girl Child Mentorship as they are the most vulnerable and exploited demographic in Malawi & Kenya due to lack of education and rights.
