Girls Inspire:
Educational Materials Support to
Primary School Girls Adjacent to the Ruvu Forest Reserve
Mdlandizi, Tanzania
In this second phase, the project
provided learning materials support to girls’ pupils in the two project schools
namely Mpera and Mumbi. The aim was to increase attendance and reduce
absenteeism among primary school girls in selected schools. The project noted a
satisfactory increase in the numbers of girls completing Class VII during the
end of school year 2025 compared to the year 2024. In Mumbi, we recorded a 30%
increase in girls completion rate (78%) compared to (48%) in 2024. Similarly,
in the other project school, Mpera, 87% completed primary school compared to
48% during the previous year, a 39% increase.
“I thank very much, the project
leader Dorah Mbogo and team, and mostly important our donors, David Tyler
Trust, for supporting this gathering, with the aim of strengthening learning
access and support to our children, both girls and boys. I request that you
continue with this good work you are doing of mobilizing resources and support
to these schools, in order to address other existing challenges including poor
learning infrastructures and resources such as computers, water and
sanitation.”
