group of skilled teenage girls in rural community
There are so many teenage girls that have vocational skills but are not be able to establish their business because of fund. They have different vocational skills that could help them to be less independent and also prevent teenage pregnancy. They also have customers that will like to patronise them but no instrument and space to work with
Many of them will get jobs thinking of saving toward buying the instruments and getting a space of their own, unfortunately the kind of Job they get is unable to get them enough money to save towards getting themselves necessary things to start their own business. So they give up the skills and eventually will not be able too stay on their own and the job they get give them stipend and take up their time which will not allow them to go back to school to further their education.
Our initiative is to put up a center for teenage girls in which all instruments needed for them to work will be provided. as soon as they have customer to do work for, they can come to the center to pay stipend and they will be able to complete the business and earn from the business.
This will help them to earn, have time to further education and be able to build up their confidence and begin to develop their entrepreneurial journey. This will really impact their life and get them established
