Child Marriage Prevention

In our community, child marriage remains a heartbreaking reality, driven by both poverty and deeply rooted traditions. Girls as young as 12 are forced to leave school and become wives, losing their childhood, education, and future.

We created the Kanya String of Hope program to change that.

Through this initiative, girls at risk of early marriage earn income by making handmade bracelets. This builds their financial independence and helps them contribute to their families. Girls receive income for school and daily needs, with a matching amount saved in a trust they can access at 18 if they stay in school and unmarried.

Your donation fuels this entire process. You help provide materials, mentorship, and the incentive that keeps girls learning, dreaming, and choosing their own futures.

Together, we can make child marriage a thing of the past.
