CFG currently works in the following thematic areas, Women Economic Empowerment, The Aged and Ageing, Democratic Governance and Leadership, Human Rights, Education in Prisons/Health/Environment/Climate Change/Arts and Culture, among others.

Train 100 Young Women to Gain Skills in Kenya

CFG plans to train 100 Young Women in Kayole Nairobi County of Kenya who have dropped out of School because of Pregnancy. they will give a Young Woman the Opportunity to Acquire the Skills needed to forge a Sustainable Livelihood for themselves and their Families.

Challenge - Young Girls drop out of School because of Early Pregnancies without the Skills needed to get Work or Start a Business.

Solution - Supporting Young Women to acquire the Skills Training is a Sustainable way for them to Support themselves and their Young Families, your Gift provides them with the Skills and Knowledge.

Long-Term Impact - They will train 100 Young Women a Year, who drop out of School because of Pregnancies. They will get a chance to gain Skills to support themselves and their Families in the Future.

I became a Donor in 2016. This year Pamela asked more to join CFG as their U.S. Representative and create Community Focus Group (CFG) International.

As part of this project I created their new website cfgintl.org.
