Namibia- Girl's Youth Hostel- Fundraising Opportunity!!


ENA would love to introduce you to a project that we are very proud to sponsor. 

We are currently supporting 170 girls receive a quality education in a youth hostel in Namibia!!

The girls in the youth hostel are all orphans, at risk or have chosen to live away from home to receive an education for a brighter future. All students receive a quality education, school supplies, food, clothing and shelter.

As you will see, the hostel is in need of some updates and repair. We are currently hoping to raise $50,000 to pay for a renovation. If you would like to help sponsor this wonderful project, please contact us through our website here or email bree@engagenowafrica.org

Below is the front of the hostel...


And the courtyard where the girls spend their free time playing and socializing.

 The hostel is run by a group of wonderful nuns who are dedicating their lives to the care and education of these amazing girls!

Here are a few pictures showing the tight sleeping quarters. This is one of the areas that we would love to expand and make a little more comfortable for the girls. 


Here is a view of the outside of the sleeping quarters... 


This is one of the classrooms where the girls spend most of their time.

 The desks are in great disrepair and the girls will greatly benefit from new and larger quantities of desks to learn and do their studies. 

As mentioned previously, ENA is providing meals for all of the girls. Here is a picture of a typical meal service in the dining hall. 

 The kitchen staff cooks and prepares meals for 170 girls daily in this outdoor kitchen. The renovation will also provide an updated kitchen which will make meal preparations much easier for the dedicated staff. 

This is a wonderful facility that we are honored to be a part of and support.

Please join us in supporting them on their educational journey so they can, in turn, strengthen their families and communities.
