CFK Africa supports these teenage mothers in gaining financial independence by providing skills training and placing them in jobs in traditionally male-dominated fields.
“The initiative dubbed, Women at Work, will provide them with valuable training to develop critical job skills often found in higher-paying, male-dominated fields.”
For CFK Africa, 2025 has been an extraordinary year of impact. We are pleased to present our interactive year in review.
“Through hands-on training, this new program aims to empower young women by creating opportunities for long-term economic security.”
“There are thousands of other aspiring youth like us who are talented but need opportunity and guidance to get started.”
CFK Africa has brought more than 25 stakeholders together to kick off the global 16 Days of Activism campaign against GBV.
“Exchanging stories can be powerful in curating observations, co-creating understanding, openly exploring how challenges can be overcome, and drawing insights for developing and adapting programs at the grassroots.”
The youth-focused NGO says the situation poses a serious threat to the health, education, and future of young people in the community.
