Help women and girls reach their full potential
Women and girls in remote and rural settings face enormous challenges:
- Every two minutes, a woman dies during pregnancy or childbirth
- One in every 10 girls in Uganda, aged 15 to 19, is a teen mother
- Only 28% of girls complete high school in Nepal
You can help break down the barriers that prevent women and girls from reaching their full potential.
And you can support proven models with the power to prevent maternal and newborn deaths, reduce teen pregnancy, and ensure all girls receive an education.
Stand with us and invest in a better future for women and girls.
The Adara businesses fund all our core support, administration and emergency project costs. This means 100% of your donation goes directly to our project work.

Meet Sarah
When Sarah was 17 years old, life as she knew it came to a halt. COVID-19 entered the world, plunging communities into lockdowns and closing schools’ doors. Like many other young people during this time, Sarah fell pregnant, and was forced to leave home.
Fortunately, she learnt about the Adara Youth Community Centre during her pregnancy. There, she received counselling and antenatal care. Today Sarah has a healthy baby and has even returned to school. Her dream? To become a doctor.
Please join us to create a world where every woman can give
birth safely, every young woman is supported with sexual and reproductive
health services, and every girl has access to quality education.
