In Malawi today, girls’ education is an emergency. 42% of our girls are married before the age of 18 and 9% before the age of 15. Girls in secondary school face considerable barriers in accessing education. Many lack the resources to stay in school, resulting in high rates of early marriage, teen pregnancy, and school dropout. With these situations, only 14% of girls finish secondary school.
Education is a fundamental right, and a matter of justice. Girls' education and women's leadership are also key to tackling our most pressing global challenges. Together, we can ignite the world-changing power of girls’ education.
Scholarships contribute to breaking cultural and social barriers that vulnerable girls face every day. Girls are able to attend school and are provided with the necessary materials for their secondary matriculation.
The Adopt-A-School Campaign is a program where sponsors are asked to partner with the Trust in providing support for a school of their choice.
