She Shines Forward Campaign

Supporting Girls to Stay in School and Grow with Confidence

She Shines Forward campaign

She Shines Forward is the evolved name of the Power to She campaign. Laapeng Foundation continues the same mission to keep girls in school, curb intergenerational sex, restore dignity and help young women become confident leaders.

The campaign supports girls through open dialogues, mentoring sessions, motivational coaching and community outreach. We work with schools, families and local partners to create safe spaces where girls can speak freely, learn about their rights, and receive practical support.


What She Shines Forward Does

  • Keeps the girl child in school by supporting retention and wellbeing.
  • Reduces intergenerational sex through education and community accountability.
  • Restores dignity by distributing hygiene products and dignity packs.
  • Provides mentoring, coaching and leadership development for young women.
  • Invites motivational speakers to inspire girls and strengthen their vision for the future.

Why it Matters

Many girls face barriers that make it harder to stay in school, including economic pressure, hygiene needs and social risk. She Shines Forward offers them encouragement, practical support and a stronger belief in their own future.

When girls are supported, they are more likely to complete their education, avoid risky relationships, and become empowered members of their communities.


Campaign Activities

  • School dialogues with adolescents and caregivers.
  • Distribution of dignity packs and sanitary products.
