Who we are
The heart of Emerge is the resilience of our amazing programme participants and alumni
Investing In courageous girls
At Emerge, we invest in strong girls, who we know will rock the boat and fight for a better future. Emerge works with girls who have survived abuse, often in their own families, and have had the courage to speak out, to work to protect their younger sisters, and to create a safe reality for their own children. What if these courageous and resilient young women had the skills, resources and networks to enact their own visions of change?
At Emerge, we believe this is the best investment we can make.
​
For the past 18 years, Emerge has been supporting survivors of childhood sexual abuse through our trauma sensitive and life skills programmes. Over 1,300 courageous young girls have passed through our doors with heart-warming and inspirational stories of transformation and success. To learn more about how Emerge helps young girls heal, launch businesses, be financially independent and build their own homes and start a family
Our People
Our Biggest strength is our people who work tirelessly and unselfishly in the background to bring our vision, mission and dreams to life .
