On February 23rd, Sahiyo had the opportunity to talk to students at the Townview High School Career Fair in Dallas, Texas. Our Training and Technical Assistance (T&TA) Coordinator, Aries Nuno, provided information about Sahiyo’s mission to end FGC and offered a glimpse into the workings of NGOs.
The event allowed us to educate students about the impact of FGC and the importance of community involvement in addressing such issues. We presented various ways for students to contribute to this cause, including volunteering with organizations like ours, participating in educational initiatives about FGC, and encouraging conversations about the practice in their circles.
It was encouraging to see how interested students were in learning more about social issues and how they can be part of the solution. We appreciate the chance to have been part of this career fair and talk to young individuals about making a difference through NGO work.
We thank the staff and students of Townview High School for welcoming us and look forward to future opportunities to engage with the community.
