“Education is Power”.
The more one is filled with knowledge, the more they are empowered to live an independent life, hence a bright future.
Through our Program of Empowering the Girl Child in formal and Informal/ Vocational education, these five girls by the names of Namukose Florence, Namwase Alasia, Kisakye Ruth, Nalubanga Ruth and Nasasira Apophia, residents of Buyende and Shema Districts respectively have got an opportunity to attain Vocational Training in Hair Dressing.
Due to unavoidable circumstances which include but not limited to lack of financial support in the respective homes to cater for their school dues, these and many other girls in diverse kinds of Villages keep dropping out of school and most of them are forced into teenage marriages and harsh labor as house maids in cities/ towns where they sometimes are misused sexually and dumped.
With help of Daughters and Widows of Hope Ministries together with friends and partners, girls as such who have lost hope of attaining formal education are given an opportunity to get hands-on training in different skills like, Hair Dressing, Tailoring, Fashion and Design, Bakery, among others.
Through Halleluya International School of Beauty, these 5 girls have been given a chance to take on a training in Hair Dressing course after which they will be qualified, certified and able to start up their own small scale businesses to sustain themselves independently.
