GIRL POWER CLUBS AFRICA TAKES A BOLD STEP TO BUILD AND SUPPORT BUSINESS INITIATIVES AMONG CHILDREN AND TEENAGERS.
Joy and excitement fill the minds and hearts of members of
Girl Power Clubs Africa as we draw near to the competition day which is on the
22nd of June 2024. In the previous weeks
the participants have been grouped into different groups and with the help of
their facilitators have been able to come up with outstanding business ideas.
During the group formation, the facilitators were keen enough to put the
participants in groups without bias and in a way that everyone was comfortable.
The facilitators mixed the students in the upper classes with those in the
lower classes, those who are quick to learn and who take time to learn a
new concept. Each group got to select a leader amongst themselves and the group
leaders received instructions from the facilitators and they pass the
information to the rest of the group.***
Key areas that will be looked at by the judges focus on teamwork. This will be to see whether the group worked together to develop one
idea. Other things to look at will include communication skills in the group,
how organized they are, and their confidence while presenting the idea.

PRICES FOR THE WINNERS
The start-up competition is aimed at evaluating the business
ideas that the participants have and selecting the ones that qualify to receive
financial support. A total of Ksh. 20,000 has been set aside to be distributed
to the winners on this level. This award will motivate the participants
to do their best and also help them to begin to realize that their dreams are
achievable even at a young age. The winners will also get a chance to get
one-on-one mentorship with some of our partners in the business department.
