Hello ladies....
I thought i should let you know...
On Tuesday i joined the Department of Gender in the Central region of Ghana on a mentorship program to three rural communities.
Our mission was to energize the girls and boys together to stay in school and pursue their dreams. I was a mentor.
They were great. They opened up to us.
Ask our parents why they don't buy sanitary pads for us...one of them asked.
There were a lot issues to talk about. We also spoke to the parents and encouraged them to support their children through school.
It was a very inspiring trip. We hope to help in our small way to get them where they want to be.
How generous you are with your time. I am sure the children and the parents were inspired by you as well.
