Increasing Awareness & Raising Funds
Girls' education and wellness are hindered by various issues, including limited access to schools, gender-based violence, and societal expectations that prioritize domestic duties over learning. Additionally, girls may face challenges such as menstrual stigma, lack of sanitary products, and inadequate healthcare, leading to absenteeism and dropout. Furthermore, gender stereotypes and discrimination can limit their opportunities and aspirations, while also putting them at risk of child marriage, female genital mutilation, and other harmful practices. Addressing these issues is crucial to ensure that girls can pursue their education, achieve their full potential, and maintain their physical and mental well-being.
