A Saphara Journey
Want to hear what a Saphara journey really is? Look no further.
LIFE-CHANGING JOURNEY Christine continues “ASRA school is residential as the girls come from remote villages where there is no secondary school. When we began training the teachers in the Emotional Resilience and Health programme, they were very concerned that these girls would not engage with it. ‘They cannot even make eye contact with us teachers, so how will they be able to reflect on their character strengths and learn to value themselves?’ they said. “Less than two years later the transformation is amazing. The girls are confident and outgoing and when I asked them to share how the programme had impacted their lives, their response was overwhelming.”

Saphara believes in the potential of young people to change the world.
Education is at the heart of every Saphara policy and an integral part of our teams’ time in India. It is the key to empowering young people from disadvantaged communities to escape from poverty.
We have a range of initiatives focused on educating the whole community. Our teams go out regularly to teach English to children from deprived backgrounds and we have provided our partner schools with classrooms, playgrounds and teacher support. With their new skills and amenities the communities themselves will be the ones to effect real change in their lives.
Empowering girls and women is key to solving social problems.
The empowerment of women and overall gender equality are goals that Saphara fights for every day.
Through a number of education and health awareness initiatives we aim to help girls overcome the social stigmas that hold them back.
