Lamisi Fata Foundation

ABOUT US

In many parts of northern Ghana, child marriages and abuses are widespread. Most girls marry against their will and become pregnant before they are physically , emotionally, and psychologically ready for it. Lamisi was raised with girls dropping out of school at the age of 12 in order to get married and have children. She was fortunate to have uneducated parents who believed and valued the importance of formal education.

If you educate a man you simply educate an individual but if you educate a woman, you educate a whole nation.” Empowering deprived girls to have equal access to education in northern Ghana has improved through music.
