In an effort to empower young girls, Kalifa Foundation – a non-governmental organisation – empowered over 50 young girls and women in a bead making training programme to promote entrepreneurship and self-reliance.
What was the goal of the training programme?
The event, held at Ticheli in the Northern Region, aimed at providing entrepreneurial and handy skills to the beneficiaries to curb the unemployment rates and prevent them from migrating to urban areas in search of menial jobs that do not exist.
What skills did the participants gain?
The enthusiastic young girls and women who participated in the skills training gained much knowledge and new skills in the art of bead making. They were also taken through best customer practices and marketing skills to help sustain their businesses.
Kalifa Foundation’s efforts to invest in the potential of young women through educational and skill-based programmes serve as a beacon of hope and empowerment for the future. As it looks ahead, the foundation remains steadfast in its dedication to creating a positive impact and opening doors of opportunity for the young women it serves.
