The benefits of empowering youth and striving for gender equality in a developing country like Samoa is unmistakable. The lives of the kids here in Samoa are often very difficult and the focus is often daily survival rather than future success. As a result of this, many of the country’s smartest kids have not had opportunities that other youth have been privileged to experience that would benefit them in the future.

A contribution in any amount to the funding of BGW program will help to make this once in a lifetime opportunity a reality for underprivileged Samoan youth.
