building self-sustainable schools where girls need them.

Circle of Women is committed to building self-sustainable schools where girls need them.

Why? An educated girl is likely to marry later, have fewer kids, and watch those kids escape the poverty cycle. She is more likely to have her own income and spend it on her children's health. She will have better opportunities to improve her community, whose needs she knows best.

The Ant and the Grasshopper

In a field one summer's day a Grasshopper was hopping about, chirping and singing to its heart's content. An Ant passed by, bearing along with great effort an ear of corn he was taking to the nest.

"Why not come and chat with me," said the Grasshopper, "instead of toiling and moiling away?" "I am helping to lay up food for the winter," said the Ant, "and recommend you to do the same." "Why bother about winter?" said the Grasshopper; "we have got plenty of food at present."

But the Ant went on its way and continued its toil. When the winter came the Grasshopper found itself dying of hunger, while it saw the ants distributing, every day, corn and grain from the stores they had collected in the summer.
Then the Grasshopper knew..

creativity.
