About the GGCE Fund
The Gayaza Girl Child Education (GGCE) Fund is a dedicated initiative of the Gayaza Old Girls Association (GOGA), established to provide financial support to students of Gayaza Junior School and Gayaza High School who face difficulties in meeting their tuition and scholastic needs.
Rooted in the long-standing spirit of solidarity among Gayaza Old Girls, the Fund is a formalized, transparent, and accountable structure that channels the generosity of alumnae, friends, and partners toward ensuring no Gayaza girl is left behind due to financial constraints.
By creating a central pool of resources, the GGCE Fund offers a sustainable, collective approach to supporting the education of vulnerable girls, ensuring they remain in school and have the chance to thrive
