Adolescent health classes have started! The classes are the focus of our work because education is the foundation for a healthy life. At SGUW however, we recognize girls need more than just health and safety information, they need guidance and support to grow their self respect, peer-to-peer community and leadership. So, we teach health and safety by teaching critical decision making, respect for others and yourself.

We adhere to the old proverb-

                                        'Give a man a fish, he eats for a day.
                                         Teach him how to fish, he eats for lifetime.'
 
At SGUW, we know if you teach a girl how to make healthy decisions, she'll be healthy for lifetime... and, may even pass it along.   

At our four schools, we teach in different languages, to various cultural, religious and ethnic groups. Sometimes our students are all girls, sometimes mixed with boys, the schools are urban and in villages. Our staff and volunteers all come from these communities and share language and cultural backgrounds with our students.
