Sign the #CAMFEDsisterhood pledge and take a learning journey with game changing women across the globe.
Angeline, one of the first young women to receive CAMFED support in order to complete her secondary education in rural Zimbabwe, has helped to oversee the expansion of CAMFED’s program, and that of its powerful CAMFED Association of women leaders (CAMA), across five African countries.
She uses her own experience to build trust in partner communities, and join forces with young women to tackle the issue of child marriage on all fronts.
CAMFED provides girls not only with the material support to access school, but with peer psycho-social support to break down barriers like lack of confidence, lack of entitlement, and lack of sexual and reproductive health information.
Child brides like Gloria, whose story is profiled by the BBC, epitomize girls’ zeal for education against the greatest odds. Twice a widow with a young baby, Gloria is hoping to complete her education and become the first doctor in her community.
