Aminata Diallo, a WMI Scholar and December 2022 graduate wrote to us saying, “Thank you so much for your support, I am very grateful! The scholarship helped me so much, you have no idea. I mean this from the bottom of my heart, thank you all.”
Aminata is from Mali and studied education with a focus on gender equality at the African Leadership University in Rwanda. She recently served as an expert at the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America in Santiago, Chile, chosen as a result of her activism and advocacy related to gender equality and indigenous rights.
We have raised 80% of our goal for this year - will you donate today and help us reach our goal? Your support will enable young scholars worldwide to pursue their dreams and help their communities.

We’re excited to host the Dream Big Conference in Kenya in August 2023! This conference provides our scholars with support from people coming from similar backgrounds and a shared vision to help their communities. Dream Big enables scholars to form Fellowships, friendships, and learn from each other.
Anne Marie Ndiaye from Senegal met Alpha Bangura at the conference in 2018 at a difficult time and was able to grow with this connection. This quote from her below says it best -
"On a Wednesday in 2018, I got to the Dream Big Conference…He was the first eye contact I got and the first who came up to me...Through the conference, I discovered someone passionate, committed, ambitious and caring about other people's lives and dreams…He was patient and understanding, he told me my worth, my capacities and encouraged me to never give up on my dreams. You have been a mentor, a coach, a motivation for me…Thomas Bangura there so much more to say than THANK YOU!" - Anne Marie Ndiaye

With a Seed Grant in 2020 and a Growth Grant in 2021, Dr. Catherine Nagadya has built a successful business manufacturing and selling hand hygiene products in Uganda. Catherine uses 40% of the proceeds from this business to support scholarships for girls from underprivileged communities through Girls Unstoppable, a non-profit she founded in 2016. She has financed the secondary education of and provided holistic support for 36 girls in Uganda so far and hopes to keep growing.
More than 700,000 girls in Uganda between the ages of 6 to 12 have never attended school and around half of girls between the ages of 15 to 24 are illiterate. A large contributor to low female literacy and school attendance rates is that up to 40 percent of girls in Uganda are married before the age of 18. (UNGEI)
