One of our local partners in Kigoma, MVG, is working with youth who have failed or dropped out of school for a variety of reasons, often linked to extreme poverty. They are now giving them hope for the future by teaching them entrepreneurship and presentation skills, as well as introducing them to IT for the first time.
One of them is Grace. a form one dropout. She is now building her confidence via this training and wants to start a food business.
Isaya got poor exam results but says “MVGs entrepreneurship programme has changed my attitude towards becoming an entrepreneur. I now want to build my own clean energy system. This will help me create employment to many other people while serving our environment"
They are also learning budgeting and financial management with spreadsheets, something that is completely new to them as they had never used a computer before.
Thank you for your generosity in supporting this project.
