I am Great
Am Capable
(IGAC)
IGAC is a movement—a powerful force for change, growth, and empowerment.
Born in 2021 as a response to the dire effects of COVID-19 on young girls in Kamuli District, Eastern Uganda, IGAC emerged as a beacon of hope. With teenage pregnancies and early marriages on the rise, many girls were forced to leave school. IGAC stepped in to rewrite their stories.
