Through the Skills Development Fund we support their ‘Transforming Futures’ programme to provide training loans for 67 young women in teaching and nursing in Ghana. Afrikids would help them secure employment and provide support to the young women whilst they are employed. The women would be required to repay the loans, and the repayments would then be re-loaned to allow more women to take part in the programme.
