Tembea Nami Girls and Women Project
The girls and women project was established in 2023, so as to support, mentor and empower young girls and women who go through so many challenges. This is so as to help prevent early marriages, school dropout and to build their self-esteem.
Also to investigate the empowerment of women and girls and its relation with mental health during difficult situations.
We target young women from humble family backgrounds and girls who are facing challenges in life.
OUR MOTTO: Give Hope and Share Hope
OUR AIM: To uplift young girls to responsible women and help them achieve their goals.
