Chalom Hights, in partnership with Indomie and the Girl Child Education Unit under the Ministry of Education, has successfully concluded its ElevateHer Mass Mentorship Programme, impacting Junior High School (JHS) and Senior High School (SHS) girls across the Ejisu Municipality.
The programme brought together young girls in an interactive learning environment designed to equip them with knowledge and practical skills for personal and professional development.
Implemented in two phases, the first segment focused on awareness and thought leadership, introducing participants to emerging global concepts such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and its relevance in today’s digital landscape. Students were also guided on the importance of discipline, focus, and intentionality in their academic and personal lives.
The second phase centred on hands-on skills development, where participants were trained in creative vocational areas including beads and fascinators making. The initiative aimed to promote entrepreneurship, creativity, and self-reliance among the students.
The programme also featured contributions from Abigail Boakye, a teacher in the Ejisu Municipality and the 2025 Best Differentiated Learning Teacher, who engaged students with insights on adaptive learning, personal growth, and leveraging individual strengths.
In addition, a dedicated session was held for female teachers under the theme “Give to Gain,” creating a platform for reflection on mentorship, leadership, and the impact of investing in others.
Speaking at the event, Founder of Chalom Hights, Rita Adu Boateng, emphasised the importance of early mentorship and holistic development.
“At Chalom Hights, we believe that empowering young girls goes beyond inspiration—it requires equipping them with the right knowledge, mindset, and practical skills,” she said.
She added that the initiative is focused on raising confident and purpose-driven young women ready to take on leadership roles.
Programme Director, Rita Korley, highlighted the dual approach of the programme, combining digital awareness with practical training.
“This programme is designed to bridge the gap between knowledge and application,” she noted, adding that it ensures participants are not only informed but empowered to take actionable steps toward their future.
She also encouraged teachers to embrace their roles as mentors and role models, stressing that investing in young girls creates a ripple effect of leadership and resilience.
The ElevateHer Mass Mentorship Programme forms part of Chalom Hights’ broader mission to advance female empowerment through education, mentorship, and skills development, in collaboration with key stakeholders.
Organisers say the initiative continues to expand its reach, leaving participants better equipped to navigate their academic journeys and pursue leadership opportunities within their communities and beyond.
