Nigeria has celebrated the increasing number of girls in school, but what happens when those girls face bullying, emotional neglect, and the challenges of menstruation? Behind the statistics lies a painful truth: many girls are present physically but invisible emotionally, battling silent struggles that hinder their learning. With nearly one in six adolescents experiencing emotional distress, the need for mental health support in schools is urgent. At the Dear Children’s Foundation, we believe every child deserves to be seen and empowered. Join us in creating safe spaces where girls can learn freely and grow with dignity.
