Celebrating International Women’s Day

On Sunday 8 March, Malaika celebrated International Women’s Day with a day packed full of activities at our school and Football for Hope Center.

The theme for 2015 was Make it Happen, and our girls wrote poems and performed sketches about their aspirations for the future and the strong women who have become their role models.

Following the event at the school, football games were organized at the Kalebuka Football for Hope Center, in which over 50 women participated. The women were enthusiastic to demonstrate that they enjoy what is traditionally seen as a man’s game.
