Greetings from Dels Foundation.
We trust you are keeping safe and well. Notwithstanding the difficulty of this pandemic and its uncertainty with a second wave, we express our profound gratitude to you, our donors for your constant support: you stood in the gap for us. Your selfless donations always makes a difference
For the first quarter of 2021 and from our last report: we counseled 20 girls online and via phone, on their sexual reproductive health and rights. We gave 5 of the girls the opportunity to learn and make 500 pieces material face masks. 10 of the girls successfully underwent training in the making of beaded tissue boxes. They were very excited for the opportunity.
Eyram said" I will forever appreciate this opportunity accorded me, thanks to Dels Foundation and its donors".
3 more girls have benefited from the making of beaded bags, tissue boxes and other accessories, thanks for your impact.
Our newest discovery is 16-year-old Aku*who is one of 51 girls in her community to get pregnant during the COVID-19 lockdowns. Although they haven't caught the virus, the effects of the pandemic on their lives will be lasting. She has finally given birth to triplets and the future as its stands look gloomy but we believe our donors through Dels foundation will help change this narrative.
I hope you’ll learn more about this remarkable work and join Dels Foundation to support these girls today. What we choose to do now will echo throughout the lives of these girls, their children and their communities, their country, and our entire world. We owe it to them—to all of us—to support them especially in this difficult time
