The link above explains the plight of teen mothers in Ghana and why they need to be empowered.

To begin with we will like to say a big thank you to all our donors who believed in our project and donated their hard earned money to help invest in teen mothers during the March 2018 accelerator

We have started with the project and have so far worked with 20 teen mothers

The 20 teen mothers have been take through counseling and given extensive education on reproductive health, They have also been given sanitary pads to help them flow clean and hygienic during menstration

They have had skill training in bead making and event decoration for four weeks

We contracted 5 mentors who took them through mentoring.Each mentor had 5 girls each and the mentoring program for the first 20 ended in May

We are left to invest in 80 more teen mothers and we looking to raise more funding for our next 4 batches. We were expecting funding from the Paul Hodges Trust but have not been successful yet

We are also happy to all our donors for making this first phase a success.A big congratulations to you all.

GlobalGiving family will continuously act as a medium of communication between dels foundation and you our precious donors. We say a big thank you for making us proud and investing in lives together with us

About this project:

INVEST IN LIVES OF 100 TEENAGE MOTHERS IN GHANA

by Dels Foundation

Ghana,

Women and Girls

Targeting 100 teenage girls with children between the ages of 12-19 years in Ghana, this project intends to improve their lives by giving them access to comprehensive sexuality education, mentoring and vocational training. This will economically empower and equip them with knowledge and skills to take care of themselves and their children This will go a long way to prevent the emotional distress which leads them into vices such as prostitution, abused relationships and self pity.
