Responding to a Community
First, we identify the problem-- the community of Cobly identified that girls' education was important to them.
Then, we identify the girls who are orphans and extend scholarships to study in primary school.
Next, we create a study center to meet the needs of primary school students based on the girls' experience.
Finally, we engage volunteers to expand the project's reach of service.
our model is based on respect
