UNICEF: Gambia Mothers Clubs
Girls growing up in Gambia's farming communities are often faced with a tough life. Very little emphasis is put on education. Instead, they are usually forced into early marriages and are expected to do farming work and take care of the home. But now, a group of dedicated mothers is determined to change this. They've been making a positive impact on Gambia's drive for universal education and girl-friendly schools by forming Mothers' Clubs throughout the country. UNICEF has provided machines to lessen the time spent on milling food, leaving the women and girls more time and energy for education. To improve children's nutrition, the club helps harvest vegetable gardens on the school grounds, giving parents another reason to send their children to school.
