We really have had our halo’s on lately as we have assisted two NGO’s this month alone. South Sudan Educate Girls is a is a charity organisation set up and run by Sudanese people living in Australia with the help of some Australian school teachers and community members. Members of the SSEG committee have been inspired by the story of Anna Dimo and her dream to enable women to be educated participants in the rebuilding of South Sudan.
SSEG is building a girls’ high school in the town of Aweil and aims to contribute to the rebuilding of South Sudan by increasing education levels in the country (after a 21 year period of severe lack of education due to war). 100% of funds raised go directly to the building and development of the school.
To enable young women to be educated participants in the rebuilding of South Sudan, the high school will provide high quality academic learning, as well as vocational and life skills classes to empower girls to participate in the rebuilding of the country. Educate a woman, educate a nation.
We aim to help create a new hope for the local community as they rebuild their town. The school will create a new opportunities for girls in order to better their lives, the lives of their families and indeed that of the community. The school aims to be self-sufficient in water usage, gas, power needs and some food.
Redfox Media has been a long term support of SSEG’s cause, donating time and resources to help them maintain their online presence and spread the word. As their plight is gaining momentum it became time to update their web platform and presence with a solution that allowed better ways to promote their story, provide information and open up the organisation to accpet online donation etc. Show your support for this great cause and visit their brand new site, you might just be inspired to make a contribution.
