Education is the bedrock of every society, the ability to transfer knowledge from one generation to the next is a major determinant of the success of a society, often times we find out that some part of what makes the society worthwhile is lost due to the fact that there was no effective transfer of knowledge from the previous generation to the now generation.

Education of the girl child have been a matter of utmost debate in most countries of the world, there are two major school of thought, the school that believes that the girl child has little or no value and hence should not be incorporated into the society, rather should be married off and remain in the home.
A second school of thought believes that the girl child deserves the opportunity to receive similar or same treatment from the society just like their male counterparts.
The world today is a clear path between the rich and the poor, the wealthy and less priviledged, the haves and the have-nots, and the only way to ensure equal distribution to an extent is charity.
Today, we will be reviewing @girlsfoundation’s visit to a school to spread the love of steemit, to educate the students and to distribute writing materials to the students as a means of encouragenement.
