You hit right on target when you alluded to the role of mothers in determining a girl’s interest or lack of it in Mathematics.

Mothers can’t give what they don’t have to their daughters. Most mothers are Math-challenged!

You want girls to get interested? Get the mothers interested!

Perhaps a free program to teach mothers basic Mathematics could help.

Mothers could progress from basic math to middle level and beyond, so that they can acquire enough math skills to help their daughters with homework.

With a better understanding of Mathematics, mothers could turn activities like shopping, banking(going to the bank)and even cooking into math-teachable moments.

While it is okay to help feed and clothe the starving kids in Africa, can anybody care enough to go beyond those. Send them books; especially in the rural remote villages. In those villages, there are no electricity, no healthcare facility and no paved roads. In those villages there is a huge famine of books and educational materials.

Can anybody send them school supplies? If you care enough, can you help drill a water well? By so doing you could save the life of a little girl from water-borne diseases and also save her about seven hours each day of fetching contaminated water from infested communal river. Above all, send her books so she could learn how to read and be able to help herself.
