Stories that Matter
"I was amazed at the consistency and love for the girls had taken educating these girls. I encourage the girls to learn as much as they can from their teachers. I also encourage my fellow parents to follow up their children"
(A beneficiary's mother)
"Education is one of the important things a growing child should be exposed to. That's why I am really grateful for your hard work and dedication to providing for these young girls"
(A beneficiary's father)
"Seeing that this project was pioneered by undergraduates, I would like to commend them because I know it wasn't easy. I’m happy that my sisters have people out there who are also intentional about their growth. I'm extremely thankful"
P.E. (A beneficiary's guardian)
"This experience has shaped me more as a person, I've learnt to be more patient, time management and self control. I see things from a different view now from what I've known all my life. For the girls, I hope they become the best version of themselves"
K. O, Volunteer
"In the course of volunteering, I've become more confident in speaking in public, and I’m happy I could be of help to the development of girls younger than me"
