​Upcoming Event:
Open Table Girls' Mentorship Forum

---

Mentoring girls can help girls reach their full potential in education and career development. Through this Open Table discussion, we will be able to dive into detail about the impacts mentorship had on successful women and how they have dealt with hurdles in their career as well as their personal life. 
​
Our theme is to empower girls by having inspirational women from different fields speaking about their experiences in mentorship and how this affected their career development. This will be an opportunity for girls to ask questions openly to guide and plan their future. The event will be on Friday 26th August 2022 between 3 – 7pm at the YMCA, MDI Road, The Gambia.

Keep Our Girls In School Campaign

Founded in January 2019, we have paired up to 180 girls with sponsors in the UK, Germany, USA, and rest of the world. Of course, this would not have been possible without the generous support of our sponsors and donors. However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we have lost close to 50 sponsors. The implication being that our girls are at risk of not continuing in school for the upcoming academic year in September 2022.
 
To continue ensuring that our girls stay in school, we have launched the ‘Keep Our Girls in School Campaign’. The aim is to raise $5,000, which would be used to pay the fees of the girls who have lost their sponsors and to provide them with resources for school.

​At SaGG Foundation, we focus on placing girls in The Gambia on the path to success through education. We are a non-profit organisation that seeks to sustainably empower girls through education. 

Our resent event took place in The Gambia, celebrating the International Day of The Girl Child. The recent event focused on the protection and wellbeing of girls. The aim was to raise awareness on:
​

• Menstrual health and hygiene
• Understanding of the female reproductive system
• Preventive measures to avoid sexual harassment, molestation, or worst rape.

The event was hosted by Sainey M. Ceesay founder of the Safe Haven Foundation, and Phebian Ina Grant Principal Health Research Officer Ministry of Health The Gambia.
