Testimonals

…an outstanding contribution…
"10,000 Girls is making an outstanding contribution to development in Senegal. School-aged girls are taking charge of their own education, while demonstrating an exceptional capacity for entrepreneurship… it’s amazing to watch them succeed! I would love to see more projects like this one."

Patricia Ramsey

…based on a sustainable business model…
"Viola is an incredible woman and a dear friend. She has single-handedly changed the lives of countless girls in one of the most underserved regions of Senegal… and now, more remarkably, she is letting 10,000 Girls take flight as a program, based on a sustainable business model, run by the girls themselves."
