Sharing Life Mentoring Program

Girls in low-income communities across Africa face complex socio-economic, cultural and gender challenges that affect their educational opportunities. Our mentoring program, launching in February 2021, tackles these barriers helping the most marginalised girls acquire the 21st-century skills and opportunities they need to succeed in school and adulthood.
