The barriers that keep girls out of school are deeply systemic, tied to poverty, gender norms, infrastructure gaps, and emotional strain on caregivers and educators. That's why our work is grounded in a whole-of-person and whole-of-system approach.
Our model addresses financial, social, and psychological challenges in parallel, creating long-term systemic impact.
We treat schools and communities as equal partners, not beneficiaries. Our programs are designed with, not just for, those we serve.
Mothers become both beneficiaries and community educators. This unique structure multiplies impact across generations and makes the program locally sustainable.
Through the Companion Collective, we are one of the few organizations investing in teacher mental health — because a resilient teacher is essential for a resilient student body.
