A million teens will find out they are pregnant this year. That means right this second there are millions of young mothers experiencing the hardships, pain and loneliness of single parenting. Thousands are devoted over their single parenting. Thousands are devastated over their inability to provide dinner for their baby tonight. Hundreds are hopeless enough to embrace a lifestyle that eventually leads to death. Currently single parents are over represented in nearly every negative statistical category.
Crime, lack of education, poverty, drug and alcohol abuse, early pregnancy and so on. Statistics seem to indicate that one person cannot raise a child or children alone.
Because of the various issue single mothers face, Hope For African Girl has developed a comprehensive assortment of programmes and services. These programmes focus on education, improvement and empowerment. Hope For African Girl programmes are unique in that each programme provides individual services for both the parent and child thereby supporting the single mother as a whole.
With the number of single mothers increasing every day, it is Hope For African Girl’s position that single motherhood impacts the life of nearly everyone, either you are single mother or you know someone who is.
WHO WE ARE
Hope For African Girl is a private registered institution in Uganda. It is basically established on a non-for profit arrangement that was started by friends, actually fellow single mothers through sharing their different experiences during fellowships, church and seminars where we developed collective ideas to help the many long single mothers out there going through the same challenges, shared to give hope and deliver sustainable solutions to problems of early pregnancies to youth single mothers and through a partnership we formed this organisation.
Our desire is to help the young mother who has lost all hope become a strong pillar of society by overcoming life’s challenges of poverty, illiteracy, early pregnancies, and uncertain future. We believe that these young mothers all have skills, talents and different potentials that if given room to implement them, they would become great ladies of the nation.
