Across the African continent, girls face a host of challenges and obstacles that prevent them from reaching their full potential. From limited access to education and healthcare to harmful cultural practices like child marriage and female genital mutilation, the struggles facing the girl child in Africa are numerous and complex.


At African Girl Foundation, we are with access to education, healthcare, and other resources that are crucial for their well-being and success. We also work to raise awareness about the issues facing the girl child in Africa committed to breaking down the barriers that prevent girls from thriving. Through our programs, we provide girls and advocate for policies and practices that promote gender equality and empowerment.



One of the biggest challenges facing the girl child in Africa is the lack of opportunities for education. Many girls are forced to drop out of school due to poverty, early marriage, or other factors, limiting their future prospects and perpetuating the cycle of poverty. At African Girl Foundation, we believe that education is a fundamental right for all children, regardless of gender, and we work to ensure that girls have the resources and support they need to stay in school and succeed academically. By providing girls with mentorship, and other forms of support, we help to break down the barriers that prevent girls from accessing the education they need to thrive.
