Overview

Our partner established their organisation to build prosperous and harmonious families through the empowerment of women, youth, and children in Noinbila and to equip their communities through education, training and mentoring. A multipurpose building will be constructed and fitted with basic furniture and equipment for a preschool and an office. This project will provide holistic preschool education for 394 households in 2 neighbouring hamlets and work with women to develop livelihood skills so they can generate an income.

Why support this

Our partners highly value partnership and work closely with local government and other stakeholders. Preschool education is strategic as it impacts the first five formative years of a child's life which in turn influences their life-long direction. It provides an ideal opportunity for families to interact and work towards holistic transformation in the wider community. Currently, poverty, high teenage pregnancy, social customs in these hamlets contribute to abuse and neglect of women and perpetuate the lack of access to social services, employment and education.

Budget

$25,400 for year 1 of a 3 yr project. Total budget $76,200
