The Girl Child Art Foundation is seeking passionate and motivated volunteers to join our Board of Directors, with a range of skills and/or experience to complement our current Board.

According to the United Nations Resolution 66/170, Empowerment and investment in girls are key in breaking the cycle of discrimination and violence and in promoting and protecting the full and effective enjoyment of their human rights. According to UNICEF, six of the world’s 10 countries with the highest rates of child marriage are in West and Central Africa. Average prevalence across the region remains high: about 41% of girls marry before reaching the age of 18. In Nigeria, an estimated 44% of girls in Nigeria are married before their 18th birthday and the country, also, records the 11th highest rate of child marriage (UNICEF 2013). This, along with child labor and other vices are the significant obstacles to girls' education in sub-Saharan Africa and Nigeria.

We seek to address poverty, gender-based barriers, and low self-esteem faced by girls by providing a platform for underserved girls to explore their inherent creative strength, life skills education, and earn a livelihood to support themselves and their families. Excellence, honesty, teamwork, commitment, respect, and creativity are our core values and for more than 15 years, the foundation has invested in sustainable solutions that mitigate poverty, provide equal opportunities for social, economic, and educational development, while ensuring a life free of sexual violence for girls in Nigeria.

We are looking for volunteers to help IFA reach out other institutions around the world that offer social protection and/or education to children.

We are looking for volunteers to help IFA reach out other institutions around the world that offer social protection and/or education to children and adolescents in situation of vulnerability and risk.

IFA’s unique and innovative entrepreneurship methodology is available in English and Portuguese and it is totally free to non-profit organizations or volunteers.

Entrepreneurship is seen by IFA as a set of skills and behaviors that enable children and adolescents to prepare themselves for their professional future, far beyond the conception of business creation.

The complete experience offered by IFA is the Campaign Mode (a series of 5 different workshops). The whole experience is available using our app, so volunteers and instructors can teach the workshops on-line or in person.

After finishing the Campaign Mode, we will send to attendees a very special prize: a miniature printed in 3D that represents their entrepreneurial mindset (power) and a comic book, which is inspired by real histories of former participants of IFA’s Campaign Modes.

The volunteer should download our free app available in our website, register as instructor and become an IFA ambassador by finishing the training requested at the app. After this step, you will have a virtual meeting with IFA’s team to work together in a plan to find and partner with institutions that can adopt our methodology.

Knowing about entrepreneurship is not an issue you should worry about if you want to help us! You will learn all the concepts that we work on at IFA by the instructor's training and also with our support.

You do not need to be geographically near to us or to the institution you want IFA to partner with, once our workshops can be taught on-line and/or in person as well! The only request we make is your willingness and desire to help changing our children’s future in order to make the world a better place.

About the Campaign Mode: it is a series of 5 different workshops with an interval of one or two weeks between them. The total experience takes two to three months, and each workshop takes 2 hours long, then you can teach at a better time in your country and use IFA’s app to help you during the classes.

You will see how easy it is to teach our workshops, how magical those experiences are and also feel amazing after hearing testimonials of a child that was in one of your classes changing their perspectives and believing that they can dream, make their dreams come true and change the world.
