Goldenridge

1. World Care, USA.

The dorm allows us to educate girls who have been prevented from continuing school, due to cultural and family pressures and the threat of early forced marriage. The dorms will accommodate nearly 100 young women—more female students than at any other high school in Geita District.

To oversee the dorm, the school hired a matron or “dorm mother” — a local woman who the community will trust to look after the young women at the school. GRHS management has already identified several candidates for this job. The school will also offer mentor and tutor programs, parent outreach, and life skills training, to make sure our girl students have all the support they need to stay in school and succeed

Construction is complete on our new girls’ dormitory at the Golden Ridge High School (GRHS) campus. The dorms was completed in time for our first academic year 2011. The project would not have been possible without the generous donation World Care; thank you for your support.
