You can help her afford to stay in school
We provide direct cash assistance so girls can get an education.
Give NowWe provide direct cash assistance so girls can get an education.
Give NowWe use purpose-built technology to monitor school attendance, identify out-of-school girls, and provide monthly cash transfers, so girls can afford an education.
And we address non-financial barriers to school attendance by connecting girls and their families with services and support so they can better care for themselves.
Our approach is guided by years of evidence, which tells us that cash assistance significantly increases school enrollment in communities affected by extreme poverty. Learn more about the impact of cash assistance.
We work in Sierra Leone, a country where nearly half of women have never attended school. Of the girls who make it to school, nearly 30% drop out by age 12. They are often forced into early marriage, child labor or worse.
The government of Sierra Leone is firmly invested in improving access to quality education nationwide, and we are proud to support this effort. Learn more about our work.
