•We have a database which includes colleges from around the world for our girls to be aware of and apply to once the time comes. (If you have any University contacts, please let us know. We can add them to our list).

•Our goal for our girls is that they can become the leaders and educators of tomorrow, that they will act as change-makers and problem solvers. Our objective is for our students to be able to determine their futures for themselves. Whether it be as doctors, engineers, future teachers or leaders in their communities and at Malaika... we want to give them the education and tools to cultivate prosperous futures.

“The past 9 years at Malaika have totally changed my life. I have learned things that have helped me become aware of my role as a woman in society and that have encouraged me not to stay behind. I dream of one day becoming a computer network engineer, and through Malaika I hope to get there.” Louise Mujinga, 3rd Secondary
