Dear Friends and Supporters,
We are deeply grateful for your continued support and dedication to empowering marginalized girls in Morocco. Your contributions are providing essential resources and making a lasting difference in the lives of hundreds of girls!
Today, we want to share the inspiring story of Nouhaila, a 15-year-old from Marrakesh, who exemplifies resilience, determination, and the transformative power of our empowerment workshops.
Nouhaila's Story
Nouhaila, a bright and determined student in the 10th grade, joined the Project Soar program in 2023. Before Project Soar, she faced significant challenges in understanding her value and realizing her full potential. Like many girls in Morocco, societal barriers often discouraged her from recognizing her worth. "Before coming to Project Soar, I didn't know what my value was," Nouhaila reflects.
Through her participation in Project Soar's empowerment workshops, Nouhaila discovered her inner strength. She credits the Value and Path modules with opening her eyes to her potential. "I learned that I have the same value as anyone else, and the same rights." These workshops gave her the tools to recognize her worth and advocate for herself.
In particular, the Path module, which teaches girls how to organize their priorities and plan for their future, resonated with her. She loved the debate activities, where she could express her opinions and defend her ideas. Before attending Project Soar, Nouhaila admits she wouldn’t have had the courage to stand in front of an audience, but she now stands confidently in front of her peers, delivering presentations and engaging in debates. Her family has taken notice too, recognizing her as a confident and responsible young woman.
Nouhaila’s story is just one example of the many girls who, with the right knowledge and encouragement, are taking charge of their futures. By contributing to this program, you are helping girls like Nouhaila access critical knowledge about their rights and providing them with the tools they need to overcome barriers to education and personal growth.
Thank you for standing with us and supporting our mission. Together, we are empowering hundreds of girls across Morocco, helping them soar to new heights and become the leaders of tomorrow.
Warmest wishes,
The Project Soar Team
