Many girls who attend primary school in Bukoba, Tanzania remain illiterate because after-school they are expected to farm, cook, clean, and care for their siblings, while boys are encouraged to complete their homework. Studies prove that investing in girls' education delivers huge returns for economic growth, women's health, and disease prevention.

SHARE (www.cosad.org/share) envisions a world where girls are empowered to improve their lives and strive for a better future. SHARE is dedicated to educating girls in Bukoba by offering an after-school reading program with the goal of widening horizons through the power of the written word.
