What’s Keeping Girls from Attending School?

These figures reveal the fact that the education of girls isn’t just an individual or familial responsibility but rather the collective responsibility of all communities. Because an educated girl will bring economic and social mobility to her community, making a better life for not only herself but for all of us. En-Light a Girl Child is helping more girls finish school and avoid early marriage and childbearing through awareness and empowerment programs geared towards creating positive discrimination for girl students. YOU can also help girls acquire the education they need to achieve their dreams through small interventions and acts of everyday heroism by changing the attitude of your community toward girls’ education, marriage and childbearing.
