give the gift
of education

Education is the cornerstone of empowerment. At Hawega Foundation, we believe that when you educate the girls, you educate the tribe. With your support, not only are we giving these girls access to quality education, but their mamas also agree not to perform FGM, which is traditionally performed on 100% of female youth. Through scholastic sponsorships, we have the opportunity to create a powerful ripple effect that uplifts entire communites and fosters lasting transformation. The opportunity to create a female driven future. Help us be the change we wish to see in the world by donating below.
