empower girls (and boys, when whole school
delivery takes place), and equip them with
knowledge and advice that will enable them
to advance towards a better future.
Our most recent whole school workshop
delivery was delivering Sexual and
Reproductive Health workshops in
secondary schools

programmes, we have been delivering a
targeted mentorshipscheme with 32girls in| |||primary school and 16 girls in university,

continuing to support girls with their further
education, which is a huge impact, as these
girls would not be continuing with their
further education without this assistance. We
are also providing them with monthly support
packages of some of their daily needs.
Our mentorship workshops in schools
continue to be highly impactful in instilling
knowledge in beneficiaries. Our recent
workshops around Sexual and Reproductive
Health is providing information to your
people which can result in:
•
a reduction in pregnancy and early
marriages.

better understanding/prevention

STI.
•
Menstrual health management.
•
Challenging gender based violence –
as we discuss consent and harmful
practices within our sessions.
Our targeted mentorship scheme is
providing tailored support to the most
vulnerable girls in the community. We spend
4 hours a month listening to challenges they
face, addressing these challenges, as well
as motivating them towards better outcomes
around their academics, mental health and
life skills development. As a result of our
interventions, we are seeing these girls
developing positive relationships with their
mentors, where they are comfortable to
discuss challenges and explore solutions
together. Furthermore, there is positive
outcomes being demonstrated in their
academic performances.
We are now delivering entrepreneurship and
business management training to
girls/women from rural communities so they
can create and grow their enterprise, which
will allow them to become financially
independent.
Our pilot loan scheme is making a huge
difference in enabling those who have
completed the business training to invest in
their businesses for greater success.| |---|---|---|---| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: N/A |Achievements against
