The full question is Is it really difficult for African children to get an education? How does this affect your heart - does it make you feel really emotional?


A lot of African girls are being denied education purely on the basis of gender. It really saddens me, but instead of just being upset I decided to do my part. I have a scholarship called the David Oyelowo Leadership Scholarship and it's run by the GEANCO FOUNDATION. It's a scholarship for girls affected by Boko Haram in Nigeria. http://www.geanco.org/
