About Us

Twic East girls scholarship program (TEGSP) is an Australian registered charity organization launched in 2015 in Brisbane, Australia. The goal of TEGSP is to foster women empowerment and encourage development through Girl-child education. TEGSP is currently operating in all states and territories of Australia and is run by volunteers who offer to share their own Australian privileges with young girls through scholarship and mentoring. The errand of Twic East Girl’s Scholarship Program (TEGSP) here in Australia is to raise funds by mobilizing caring individuals, communities, organizations and businesses around the world to meet the educational and developmental needs of hardworking girls back in Kakuma refugee Camp as well as advocate for girl’s education and empowerment here in Australia. TEGSP would like to act as a catalyst in shaking up the pre-conceived notion of gender discrimination in education and promote equal opportunities in regards to education and as a result encourage pro-economic independency, strong interpersonal skills, and reassert a sense of hope in the future for young women. We advocate in our communities that when it’s come to education everyone should be on an equal foothold.
