Be greedy for social change, and your life will be endlessly enriched. The only failure lies in not trying, or giving up.
~ Ann Cotton
Never take your eye off the ball. Always remember that you and everyone on the team is the servant of the cause - in our case, girls' education and young women's leadership in Africa.
For more than 20 years, Camfed has supported a generation of African girls and women with access to secondary and higher education, employment opportunities, and, ultimately, into positions of leadership.
Have faith in your intuition and listen to your gut feeling.
I have seen the transformative effect that education has in the lives of young women and their communities.
Girls' education is a human right. And along with its fundamental justice, it promises so much for the individual, for her family, for society, for all of us.
You can't raise the aspirations of a child and then leave them hanging. Poverty can't be solved by a project. It's solved by a relationship, collaboration.
