The Girls Achievment Programs (GAP) are achieving their goal: engaging 5th, 6th, and 7th grade girls in dynamic, engaging extra-curricular activities that keep them in school.
Ireen, a Kafwa in Kasompe, Zambia recently wrote:
In many schools pupils have dropped out of school because many have fallen pregnant but we thank God at our School we don’t have such issues.
Mama Sherri we are asking if we can be allowed to be teaching those girls who are in the GAP group because there is no any Kafwa but only teachers are there. So we want to start associating with those teachers who are in GAP. We had the workshop with the Ministry of Health (Government) where they taught us on how to stop girls stop involving themselves into relationships because many are contracting HIV/AIDS that is the reason why we want to be working together with teachers in GAP.
We're thrilled with Ireen's proposal to expand the GAP program to include both teacher and Kafwa mentors!!
