Empowering Girls (E3)
SEE THE COURSES YOU CAN HELP EXPAND TO REACH MORE WOMEN
For women residing in impoverished conditions within expansive urban slums and surrounding areas, breaking free from poverty isn't solely about aspiration or ambition. Instead, it hinges greatly on the availability of opportunities.
While certain nations have progressed to some extent, their institutions struggle to cater to the overwhelming needs of their extensive populace. Schools are often overcrowded and insufficient to address the demands, leading many to be left behind or entirely excluded.
This is where your involvement becomes paramount, particularly through the E3 Vocational Training Schools. E3 represents Education, Empowerment, and Employability.
