Educate 120 Girls in Mauritania
Organization information
MindLeaps
Location: New York, United States of America
Summary
In Mauritania, only 42% of females are literate. Girls are restricted to chores inside the home as "house servants." This prevents them from attending school and developing the skills they need to succeed in life and understand their rights. MindLeaps is addressing this problem through a unique creative arts approach that attracts girls to safe spaces. We provide school sponsorship, psychological health, and nutrition, setting the girls on a path to education, careers, & positive life decisions.
