To end our week of education a traditional aid organization- Camfed.
In the endless list of African aid organizations Camfed has weathered the years and developed a model that works. Not only are they helping educate girls, but they are working to support them well beyond school and encouraging them to become leaders in their communities.
It's not such a controversial idea now, but early on Camfed was an organization that realized the impact of targeting girls in the community. They bring together grassroots, government and civil society representatives to tackle the obstacles women face at the individual, school district and national levels.
Since 1993 Camfed has provided education to over 2.4 million children and trained 19,550 alumnae to advocate for and lead change in their communities. By helping a girl all the way through from school to career they are building a network of community leaders that turn around and advocate for the next generation.
