GIVING WOMEN A VOICE
In South Sudan over 50% of girls are wedded before the age of 18, with a staggering number of those girls being sold as brides by the family
Help Their voice be heard
Giving Women a Voice is a project funded and operated by RMC Ministries which aims to stop the selling of young girls by education and providing the right resources for success
Over 250 young women being educated
With RMC’s F.I.S.H. Academy and various programs young women are being educated from primary and secondary education levels as well as vocational programs to provide the right resources for sustainability
together we can make a difference
The oppression of woman within South Sudan is both staggering and mind blowing. We have met women as young as the age of 12 that have been sold by their village or families as brides for a few live stock. Many have passed away due to complications during child birth due to their young age. Sadly, one of our students has been killed by the her village because she refused to be sold as a bride. These woman are constantly being silenced, either by fear tactics, house arrest or death. RMC Ministries is dedicated in giving these women a voice to be heard, and stand up to selling of brides.
