teenage mother mortality rate, increasing number of school drop outs, the increasing
spread of HIV/AIDS among teenagers, a high number of children mothering fellow

We’re All About Empowering Teenage Mothers.
Empowering Teenage Mothers With Practical Skills
01
We believe that empowering girls with the right entrepreneurial skills does not only elevate their chances of generating income but also enables them to be independent.
Many girls have found themselves in unwanted marriages simply because their families traded them for dowry and These girls are left to enter such marriages because of poverty.
We teach girls with skills that allow them to start something for themselves, be independent and make the right choices in life
VISION
A society of prosperous teen mothers and girls conceiving at a consent age.
02
MISSION
Elevating the lifestyle of marginalized and demeaned teenage mothers to be able to
live a purposeful life.

We Cannot Do This Alone,
We wish we could rescue all the vulnerable teenage mothers at once, but we take in few at a time depending on the available resources.
