Impact of Girls' Education: Breaking Barriers and Building Futures

The impact of girls' education benefits us in ways deeper than ever! Not only does it enhance your career but also pushes you to become more aware of your rights and direct a brighter future for yourself. Education and its impact can positively change the trajectory of your life and we emphasise on girl child education to help place girls on the path to success.

However, in The Gambia, female education is not supported easily. Girls are subjected to early child marriages, child labour, child trafficking, and many similar adversities that hinder their growth and possibilities.
​
​We believe in creating an impact and bringing about a change through education. This initiative is only successful with your help!

Grant Awarded for Entrepreneurship & Training

October ’22 brought us great news as the SaGG Foundation in partnership with Girls' For The Future Foundation, was awarded a Grant of €5000 by The Gambia Diaspora Development Fund.
​
The Grant is awarded exclusively for developing and nurturing entrepreneurial skills in girls. A joint partnership with a sister organization, we developed a 4-months training programme for 30 young women to be mentored on:

• Organic food preservation and processing
• Creative art design project
• Recycling and marketing
• Entrepreneurship and finance education
• Sexual and reproductive health education

The girls would each be provided with a business start-up toolkit to setup their own businesses. 

CREATING A PROGRESSIVE IMPACT

From Knowledge to Empowerment: The Life-Changing Impact of Girls Education

Fatoumatta 

We helped to pair up Fatoumatta (10) with a sponsor who will be financially supporting her entire schooling education. Her mother passed away when she was a year old and she lives with six brothers and a society pressuring child marriages. Through her education, we hope to break the barriers and fulfil her engineering dreams.

Mariama

Mariama (10) had never been to school, but with our efforts and emphasis on women’s education, we have paired her up with a sponsor who is persistent on completing her education with additional support and schooling materials. Mariama portrayed great potential and is a fast learner!

STANDING BY BRAVE GAMBIAN GIRLS​

Our vision is to make education accessible to every girl in The Gambia without any hindrance from societal norms. We want to provide a platform enabling education to these girls to become self-aware, knowledgeable and confident about their rights. We believe in supporting girls to reach their utmost potential where every girl child is given equal access to education to reach their full potential.  

What role do you play? 
​​
Your efforts and contributions benefit in every way possible. We thrive with your generosity. With the support of sponsors, donors, partnerships, corporate champions, and volunteering, we create a safe place for young girls to go to school and experience career-changing opportunities. We support them from nursery through senior secondary school right up to college and university and cover their needs including schooling amenities, exam materials, study fees, uniforms, sanitary products, stationary and transportation. 

Come, let us make a unanimous effort to educate our girls for a brighter future and better tomorrow!
