I am very passionate to help teen mothers because i know the value of education.I was born in very poor family and i was raised by my mother ,she did everything to support my education because she believed the only way to break the chain of poverty is investment in education.During my experience as social i held a meeting with teen mothers most of them had willingness to return back to school but they didn't get financial support as they want.therefore i thought the only way to reward my mother is to start a project to support teen mothers
I am well positioned to deliver this project because i have experience of working with teen mothers around six month , i have completed a training about counselling teen mothers and their parents.
In addition, I am qualified and profession teacher with a Bachelor of History of education from the university of Rwanda.I am very sure that will be able to with local authorities and school administrators to ensure every teen mother returned back to school and she is well enjoying the love of the family as it was before pregnancy.
