Education is Her Only Hope
This girl from Niger lost both her parents. Now she has nothing to strive for but receive a quality education so she can pave a future for herself and her siblings. She’s determined to become a doctor.
Unfortunately, children like her are living in extremely challenging situations worldwide.
A recent United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) report reveals that approximately 244 million children and youth from six to eighteen are still out of school. And according to UNICEF, a staggering 600 million children and teens globally are not attaining the minimum proficiency levels in reading and math, even though two thirds of them are in school. This alarming reality can have disastrous ramifications on children's ability to secure jobs or start their own businesses, increasing their odds of being stuck in the vicious cycle of poverty.
