The program has three goals:
– To allow women in literacy;
– As mothers and sisters, to enable women and girls, for the better follow children’s schooling at Kibati center in catch up program;
– To improve women’s self-confidence and give them time to share experience and initiatives in developing their villages and communities.
Consolata Wimana: I am married and have 5 children. I am happy to be able to write my name and to read some reports from my children. I was shame to come near those who are educated. Now I want all my children, boys and girls, to go to school.
Elisabeth Kabumba, I am so exited to be able to read and to write. This time, I vote myself when last election I could not and some one did for me. I still think he took had voted his candidate, not mine.
We thank our donors, how big is their generosity in educating women, which is to educate the entire nation especially this moment waiting for election.
