The heartbreaking decisions
Poverty should never stand in the way of education, including for girls. Tragically, many families are forced to make heartbreaking decisions because of economic hardships. As they struggle to provide for their families, they find themselves cornered into difficult decisions such as arranging early marriages for their daughters.
“Poverty is one of the most important factors for determining whether a girl can access and complete her education.” 1
Early marriage
Globally, 10 million girls are now at risk of early marriage.
School attendance
Around the world, 129 million girls are out of school.
How our partners are empowering local champions
Our courageous partners are on the frontlines, empowering local champions of education, particularly for girls.
Martha
Meet Martha, a true hero. Although she didn’t go to school herself, she believes fiercely that girls should have an education. When a girl in her community misses school, Martha is right there, meeting with the family to help them overcome barriers to their daughter’s schooling, and becoming a voice of encouragement and hope. She’s a catalyst for change, and her work is transforming lives.
Mary
Meet Mary, a school student who has been trained by our partner to support other girls to stay at school.
“This year we have brought back four girls who had dropped out and 20 newly enrolled girls to the school. We have also helped two girls who were about to be married off.”
