Future Of The African Daughter
Who is
this FOTAD
Daughter...?
FOTAD Daughters
Others define her by circumstances beyond her control;
illiteracy, poverty and despondency
We see her latent potential; where others see a lump of useless coal,
we see coal waiting to be molded into a diamond, hence our motto:
“Turning Coal to Diamonds, creating Tomorrow’s Leaders Today!”
“Worldwide adolescent girls are vulnerable and disadvantaged just because of who they are: girls who are adolescent. “
VISION
“to create a community of brilliant, independent and self-assured young women, who shall be the leaders of tomorrow and meaning participants in the South African economy.”
MISSION
-
Make the African daughter realise that she can and she will have a successful future if she makes sensible decisions, and takes responsible action today
-
Teach the African daughter the importance of having dreams, setting goals and achieving these goals
-
Break the cycle of poverty, abuse and depression, prevalent among African daughters by rekinding their young minds, building character and equipping them with skills to make a success of their lives
-
Provide the African daughter with alternatives to falling pregnant, engaging in premature sexual activities and hanging around the street by bridging the gap between role models and the girls and teaching them self responsibility and social responsibility
