Overview
CAMFED is a pan-African movement revolutionizing how girls’ education is delivered. Through a gold-standard system of accountability to the young people and communities it serves, it has created a model that radically improves girls’ prospects of becoming independent, influential women. This grant will support 333 of the most marginalized and vulnerable girls in rural areas of Tanzania through one year of secondary school. Costs are a major barrier to girls’ attendance — not just school fees and levies, but the costs of clothing and sanitary wear to attend school regularly with dignity, and the costs of transportation or accommodation associated with distance. This direct financial support addresses these needs for marginalized girls, building confidence and ensuring class attendance.
