Girls Remedial School Final

Youth Harvest Foundation Ghana Girls Remedial School (GRS) The purpose of the Youth Harvest Foundation Ghana Girls' Remedial School (GRS) is to provide a second chance for vulnerable girls in Northern Ghana who have failed their Senior High School exams but cannot afford private tutoring. By offering free remedial classes, free boarding, and holistic support, the program prevents early/child marriage, helps girls pass their re-sit exams, and empowers them to pursue higher education, thereby breaking the cycle of poverty and creating pathways to independence, as seen in success stories shared in the documentary. The remedial school was started in 2014, and over 250 girls have benefitted from the initiative so far. The school, however, lacks sustainable and long-term funding although we have been supported by JPG and Mundo Cooperate on short term contracts, YHFG is struggling to cover basic costs such as teachers’ stipends, learning and teaching materials, utility and maintenance cost for the running of the school. Without support in 2027, we may be forced to scale back or close the program leaving dozens of vulnerable girls without a path forward. We are therefore reaching out to trusted partners for urgent support. An amount of EUR 26,809.41 equivalent to GHS 353,584.00 is needed to run the school per year.
