In recent years, Togo has ranked 134th on the UN Women’s Gender Inequality Index of 162 countries. The index reflects inequality between women and men in THE FOLLOWING AREAS:

 

1. reproductive health: maternal mortality ratio and adolescent birth rate

​

2. empowerment: share of parliamentary seats held by women

 

3.educational attainment: population with at least some secondary education

​

4. labor market participation: labor force participation rate

 

After ensuring basic life needs are met, access to education for our seamstress and their children is the single most important luxury in Togolese culture to help transform generations.

Your giving provides professional development and opportunity for higher education along with the school and supply fees for their children.
