Every meaningful outcome we’ve achieved has been shaped by people working together, partners who share knowledge, advisors who challenge our thinking, volunteers who show up consistently, and institutions that open doors for scale. #SOSF #CollaborationInAction #PowerOfPartnership

December is a reminder of the students who found confidence this year, the teachers who discovered new ways to reach their classrooms, the entrepreneurs who turned skills into income, and the partners who helped us stretch possibility a little further. #SOSF #NewMonthNewImpact

Integrity isn’t just a value to us, it’s how we work, decide, and lead. Because real change can’t happen without trust and trust is built when people see the truth behind the work. ✨ Learn more about how SOSF keeps its mission transparent at https://t.co/E3sxfxKcQf

Real change starts when girls are given the tools to dream and the confidence to lead. Together with UNICEF, we’ve trained teachers, developed life skills manuals, and rolled out the Girls4Girls and He4She programs across 12 states, reaching over 15,000 girls #GirlsEmpowerment

Before any program begins, we set the stage with a baseline to understand the starting point. As we implement, midline checks help us adapt and improve. At the end, endline assessments show how far we’ve come and impact evaluations reveal how lives and systems have truly changed

Every program starts with one simple principle: listen before acting. Through situational analyses including surveys, focus groups, and community assessments, we determine whether a new intervention is needed or if existing programs should be strengthened. #SOSF #DataDrivenChange
