“It is not enough to urge kids to go to school and learn. Parents need to be equipped economically for them to see their children through school. This explains why leaders of the 11 women groups were trained in Douala during our 25th General Assembly,” said Nkumu Fed Fed’s president.
The cheques were made available by Nkumu Fed Fed Washington DC branch and supported by the other 12 branches of the organization.



Just like the General President of Nkumu Fed Fed always says, the best way to bless a woman and a girl child is to empower them in all forms. As such, being a gender activist will help break the back of Gender-Based Violence, GBV.
