The Importance of Education

Help_EGN_photoEducating girls is one of the most effective ways to improve food security: when girls are educated they are more likely to be able to meet the nutritional needs of their children & to head households that are food-secure.

When money is scarce, parents often keep girls at home to work or care for family members. Where school attendance is limited, the promise of at least one meal each day with our School Meals programme motivates parents to send their daughters to school. (Quoted from ©WFP/Ranak Martin)

Support the Educate Girls Network to achieve the goal of educating girls to become teachers, studying in Tubman University in Harper, Liberia. Contact us at educ8girls@gmail.com. (Photo credit to Rosio Godomar)
