Chalom Hights has successfully hosted another impactful
edition of its flagship ElevateHer Mentorship Programme at Ashiaman Gbitsele,
engaging and empowering female students preparing to write their Basic
Education Certificate Examination (BECE).
The mentorship session was designed to equip the young girls
with the confidence, guidance, motivation, and practical tools needed to
approach their examinations and future aspirations with purpose and
self-belief. The programme brought together mentors and facilitators who shared
insights on academic excellence, self-confidence, discipline, leadership,
personal growth, and resilience.
Speaking during the session, Rita Adu Boateng emphasized the
importance of intentionally investing in young girls at critical stages of
their development. “The transition period for young girls, especially before
major examinations such as the BECE, is one of the most defining moments in
their lives. Through ElevateHer, we want every girl to know that her background
does not limit her potential. We are committed to helping young girls build
confidence, dream bigger, and believe in their ability to succeed.”

The students participated in interactive discussions,
motivational sessions, and mentorship conversations focused on overcoming fear,
managing pressure, preparing mentally for examinations, and understanding the
importance of education in shaping their future opportunities. The initiative
forms part of Chalom Hights’ broader mission to empower young women and girls
to thrive personally, academically, and professionally by creating safe spaces
for mentorship, growth, and leadership development.
Teachers and community representatives present at the event
commended the initiative for addressing not only the academic needs of the
students but also their emotional and personal development ahead of their
examinations.
Since its inception, the ElevateHer programme has continued
to impact young women across different communities through mentorship
engagements, empowerment conversations, leadership development initiatives, and
educational support programmes. Chalom Hights remains committed to expanding
the reach of the ElevateHer initiative and creating opportunities that empower
more girls to rise with confidence, purpose, and ambition.
