ON OUR WAY…

Thank you to all of those who supported W.E.A.P.O.N during GlobalGiving’s global open challenge last fall. Because of your support we were able to raise enough money to provide scholarships for 20 girls for one year of secondary school and counting. This is a huge success. Since then our one person team in Agbogugu has been busy at work hand selecting the girls most in need of funding to enter, continue, or complete secondary school. Now that the initial process is complete we are headed to Nigeria to meet our beneficiaries and tell you their stories!

20 girls is a great start but it is just the beginning. As this project continues we hope to be able to keep supporting more  and more girls to go to and complete secondary school. So, your support is vital as we progress and develop new initiatives.

    What wonderful news. 20 girls is a great start. But you are right we need to help so many more girls get the education they need to help their country and themselves. I only wish I could give more, but with this recession I can only give what I can. And every little bit helps. This is a great organization and I’m proud to have given to help the young women of Nigeria. They are more than worth any and all the help we can give them. I look forward to donating more and helping as many as I can.
