IN 2020, THESE FUNDS WERE LARGELY USED TO HELP GIRLS CONTINUE THEIR EDUCATION AND MITIGATE RISK DURING COVID-19, WHICH IS WHY STF STARTED A COVID-19 RESPOND FUND.IN 2020, OUR COVID-19 RESPONSE FUND DELIVERED CARE KITS (FOOD, WATER, AND MENSTRUAL SUPPLIES) TO 1,000+ GIRLS AND FAMILIES IN MORE THAN 60 COMMUNITIES, ENSURED MENTORS COULD REACH 7,867 GIRLS WITH ADAPTED MATERIALS AND METHODS, TAUGHT SEXUAL HEALTH AND REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS CLASSES TO 6,780 GIRLS, AND INCREASED TECHNOLOGY ACCESS FOR 1,340 GIRLS.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$781.6KProgram 2 [2020]
GIRL-LED ADVOCACY INITIATIVES:OUR GIRL-LED ADVOCACY INCORPORATES TWO APPROACHES: WE CREATE RESOURCES FOR GIRLS TO ADVOCATE FOR THEMSELVES, AND WE INVITE GIRLS TO SET THE AGENDA FOR OUR CAMPAIGNS AND BEYOND.IN 2020, WE LAUNCHED NEW TOOLKITS FOR GIRLS AND OUR GLOBAL CAMPUS COMMUNITY (THE "GLOBAL GIRLS' BILL OF RIGHTS" TOOLKIT AND "DISCOVER YOUR POWER" JOURNAL), TO SUPPORT THEM IN STANDING UP FOR THEIR RIGHTS ON THE LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL LEVEL. 110,000 GIRLS ACCESSED THEM.OTHER HIGHLIGHTS: WE RALLIED OUR STF CAMPUS COMMUNITY CHAPTERS AT HIGH SCHOOLS, COLLEGES, AND UNIVERSITIES ACROSS THE GLOBE ONLINE FOR OUR FIRST-EVER DIGITAL WEEK OF ACTION. 350 STUDENTS TOOK DAILY ACTIONS TO PROTECT AND ADVANCE GIRLS' RIGHTS.

TRAININGS FOR COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS:LACK OF ACCESS TO PRACTICAL TRAINING AND OTHER RESOURCES PREVENTS COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, WHO ARE BEST-POSITIONED TO CREATE CHANGE FOR GIRLS, FROM DELIVERING ON THEIR UNIQUE VALUE. THIS IS WHY SHE'S THE FIRST OFFERS IN-PERSON AND REMOTE TRAINING TO PRACTITIONERS, TO ADDRESS THEIR NEEDS PERTAINING TO GIRL-CENTERED PROGRAM DESIGN, GIRLS' SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND RIGHTS (SRHR), AND FEMINIST MENTORSHIP MODELS.IN JANUARY 2020, WE HELD A TRAINING IN UGANDA ON COMPREHENSIVE SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH EDUCATION, WHICH EQUIPPED 30 EDUCATORS WITH THE FRAMEWORKS AND TRAINING NEEDED TO IMPLEMENT AN ONGOING SRHR PROGRAM AT THEIR SCHOOL. ADDITIONALLY, THE TRAINING EQUIPPED 25 PEER LEADERS WITH A CURRICULUM AND PEER MENTORSHIP SKILLS TO DISCUSS HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS AND POWER DYNAMICS WITHIN AN AFTER-SCHOOL SETTING. DURING THE PANDEMIC, OUR ANNUAL GIRLS FIRST SUMMIT, VIRTUALLY CONVENED REPRESENTATIVES FROM 70 COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS IN 15 DIFFERENT EAST AND WEST AFRICAN COUNTRIES. OVER THREE DAYS, PRACTITIONERS DISCUSSED POLICIES AND PROGRAMS TO ENSURE GIRLS' SAFETY DURING A GLOBAL PANDEMIC AND BEYOND. THIS INCLUDED A GIRL-CENTERED RISK REGISTER THAT WE DEVELOPED, A PRACTICAL TOOL TO ASSIST ORGANIZATIONS IN ANALYZING AND MITIGATING THE RISKS THAT GIRLS IN THEIR OWN COMMUNITIES ARE FACING AS THEY RESUME LEARNING. THROUGH A WEBINAR, WE TRAINED CBOS ON HOW TO WORK WITH A FOCUS GROUP OF GIRLS AT LEAST ONCE PER YEAR TO UPDATE THE RISK REGISTER AND DEVELOP MITIGATION STRATEGIES.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$101.5K
