Tey Por Yee & Gomif Partners Support 50 Muslim Girls to Become Nurses
New York, Washington DC (PRWEB) June 26, 2017 -- Muslim females of all ages around the world are being denied the opportunity to receive a quality education and to develop professional skills. At Sulu State College in the predominantly Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao in the Philippines, the School of Nursing has provided such opportunity. However, the school is surrounded by high poverty and communal violence. Students struggle to complete their studies.
Socialpreneur can help, for example, supporting 50 additional female nursing students with their basic educational needs, classroom materials, education fees and the cost of licensing exams. These young women demonstrate the potential success for Muslim women around the world. In addition, as health care providers, the nurses are providing vital services to all community members and expanding the employment base in one of the most economically deprived areas of the world. They are also symbols of the youth and examples to Muslim background girls in the country.
