CITTA
"CITTA plans to develop an innovative school/cooperative initiative to provide young girls with an education in combination with a women’s economic development program. This is a unique program that unites education and economic development at the same site as a means of enhancing gender parity. Too often, young girls find few economic opportunities that are further limited by their lack of any formal education. With this initiative, mothers (and other women) will be able to attend with the girls from their community to the site. While the children are receiving a formal, basic education, the women will be receiving skill training by local artisans encompassing a range of specialties designed to enable and empower their future economic independence. This will offer the opportunity to provide income generation while producing an array of products that will significantly enhance the region’s tourism trade."

Now in our second decade, we believe that we have developed one of the most effective programs in the world. With your donation you can help us help thousands."
