The Aid for Africa Girls Education Fund:
Why Girls?
Aid for Africa is committed to empowering girls through education. When a girl in Africa gets the chance to go to school and stay in school, the cycle of poverty is broken and things change.
A New Approach
Our focus is on results -- getting girls into school and supporting them throughout their education.
The Aid for Africa Difference
We provide strength through partnership, on-the-ground experience in Africa, and unique benefits to our donors.
How Much Does School Cost?
In East Africa, the average cost of a year of high school is one-twelfth the cost of a year in the US.
