Meet Esther
In Gulu, northern Uganda, many girls drop out of school simply because their families cannot afford feminine hygiene products. But, we can change this.
Together, with our partners and friends from around the world, we’re making sure girls like Esther have the opportunity to pursue an education, so they can achieve their dreams.
Now, through Keep a Girl in School, Esther is able to stay in school and is working towards her dream of one day becoming a nurse.
COMING ALONGSIDE GIRLS AND THEIR FAMILIES
We help ease the financial burden as we meet some of their basic needs, providing girls with sanitary pads, bars of soap and new panties. We also teach good health practices, along with Godly sexual education to girls and boys—teaching young boys to respect and protect their female classmates, and reminding girls that they matter and their bodies are their own.
Since we began partnering with local schools in Gulu in 2012, thousands of girls are now in school—and staying in school.
