Seven girls graduated from Secondary School in July, passing both their Terminale Level and their tremendously challenging National BAC exams.  All of them were P4K Scholarship recipients and all are now enrolled in the University of Niamey, two in Medicine.  We are incredibly proud of their accomplishments. From a very generous grant to Pencils for Kids,  laptops were presented to each girl, by seven high ranking female officials in the government, business or Foreign service. This will be their first ever laptops –  and having them will make their work in University so much easier.  It was a tremendously moving ceremony in front of all the students and dignitaries at Amadou Madougou Secondary School.  For the first time in the community of Libore, girls can see that it is possible to succeed in school and go on to University with steady work and dedication.  They now have role models showing them the way.  Our scholarship program began in 2009 with just four girls in Secondary school — and today hundreds have been recipients of these P4K scholarships.  Congrats to all the graduates!!
