AL WAFA Foundation particularly focuses on improving education to access to girls, orphans and children from poor families. Millions of women and girls living in the developing world do not have access to this basic right. By removing the barriers to education we can help girls prepare for the future, training women to have the skills they need to build better lives for themselves, their families and communities.
Women who are educated tend to delay their first pregnancies, have healthier children and are far more likely to send their own children to school. According to World Bank statistics, for every extra year a girl spends in school, she raises her family income by up to 20%.
Please help us fight poverty through education.
