Success Stories

Hear from the women and children whose lives have been transformed

Before joining the Young Mothers Empowerment Program, I had lost hope for my future. Today, I own a small tailoring business that supports my family, and my daughter is attending school. Somnia Osbrain didn't just teach me skills – they helped me believe in myself again.

YMEP Graduate, 2023

The After-school Skills Training Hub opened my eyes to a world of possibilities. I never thought I could create things with technology, but now I'm developing apps and helping my community solve problems. The mentors at Somnia Osbrain saw potential in me that I didn't even see in myself.
