Together, they wanted to close the gender gap within the education system at all levels in Africa. FAWE Uganda (FAWEU) launched in 1997 as a part of a bigger network with 34 national branches throughout Africa. FAWEU awards scholarships to secondary school students and those who have been accepted to colleges and universities but can\u2019t afford to attend due to poverty. In addition to the scholarships, FAWEU also supports students with mentoring, IT, career guidance, and job readiness skills. For ten years, Social Initiative has collaborated with FAWEU, supporting students through secondary to vocational or university education.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]\r\n\t
