Congo Girls Education
Lycée Vanette School for Girls in Karawa, Congo Lycée Vanette was built using funds generated by the denomination-wide “Educate the Girls” project. Believing that education of girls is the most effective way to address systemic poverty, Women Ministries continues to work to expand opportunity for Congolese girls through the doorway of education. The first class of girls was enrolled in fall of 2012; the first group of students completed their studies in 2017. It is our prayer that education and ongoing learning opportunities will empower girls to overcome crushing poverty and rise to become leaders of their communities, churches and their nation. Gifts given to this fund provide financial support for the school, and plans are in place for a scholarship fund for girls who graduate from the school.
