This is no doubt the only key to realise social and economic empowerment to our youth. Majority of our parents didn’t manage to go to school hence the rigidity in abandonment of harmful cultural practices and the change of lifestyle.

Educating our children is the sure way to maximise their access to information which is actually the POWER.

To realise this, Ewang’an Foundation has the following agendas in place:

• Mentorship programmes in schools. Our motivational speakers will visit different schools especially village schools to motivate student more specifically girls. This help the village girls believe in themselves that they can as well achieve their dreams. In our Mentorship program we work with young professionals from local communities to go around the schools to mentor students using their own life stories and successes. The mentorship program is for both primary and secondary
