Need
According to the statistics in Ghana the number of children out of school increased by 75.87% in 2021, with more girls dropping out than boys. Girls leave school every year in Ghana because they face all sorts of problems to get education, e.g. lack of Social Support, Poverty, Economic Hardships, Gender Discrimination, Inadequate Child Protection, Mental and Physical Health Risks, etc. Their conditions are so pathetic that their deprived families are not able to afford their school spending.
Long term impact
Overall, support to this program will contribute to increasing the level of girls' education in freedom to balance gender-equity and improve the girls' critical thinking skills so they make better life choices for themselves and their future children. Statistics show that for each year a girl remains in secondary school, she will have one less child than her unschooled peers and be 10% less likely to give birth to a child who will die before the age of 2.
