Dear Well-wishers, Friends, Donors and Volunteers.

We are excited to tell you about the Maiden Graduation Ceremony of the Yarang Llamisi Foundation (YLF) Vocational Training Centre, which held on the 26 th of June 2021 in Zambuk town of Yamaltu/Deba Local Government in Gombe State, Nigeria.

WHY WE ADVOCATE FOR GIRL CHILD EDUCATION

Educating girls specifically has enormous and far-reaching benefits, as evidence shows. It reduces rates of child marriage, promotes healthier and smaller families, improves wages and jobs for women, and empowers women to become leaders at community and government levels.
