Established in 2013, Project Soar (PS) is a registered Moroccan charitable association and a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in the US, headquartered in Marrakech. With a mission to empower teen girls to become the leaders of today and tomorrow, our signature girls’ empowerment curriculum is designed to equip marginalized teen girls with the skills and confidence to build more productive futures. Project Soar envisions a world where every marginalized teen girl knows her value, voice, body, rights and path. We're here to ignite a movement where girls are not just participants but trailblazers in the journey toward global gender equality. These girls become role models and change-makers, driving meaningful projects that address critical challenges. Together, we’re building a more equitable, sustainable world, one girl at a time. To date, Project Soar has empowered more than 30,000 girls and operates across 41 sites in Morocco, each serving as a hub for the next generation of female leaders. Our model has expanded beyond Morocco to Uganda, Lebanon, Syria, Guinea, and Ivory Coast, adapting our programme for new contexts while building local partners’ capacity to sustain the work. What began as a local initiative in Morocco has evolved into a scalable girl-powered movement across the MENA region and sub-Saharan Africa.

Oxfam is a global movement of people who share the belief that, in a world rich in resources, poverty isn't inevitable. It's an injustice which can, and must, be overcome. We're dedicated to building a just and safer world focusing on people's rights. We're passionate about ending poverty and helping to rebuild the lives affected by it. It's an enormous undertaking but we also have people on our side - talented and committed partners, volunteers, supporters and staff who share the same values. We aim to save lives by responding quickly with aid and protection during emergencies, empower people to work their own way out of poverty and campaign for lasting change. We have been saving and changing lives for seventy years now and know that tackling poverty is only possible when we are helping people to secure their fundamental human rights - the right to life and security, the right to a sustainable livelihood, the right to essential services, the right to be heard and the right to equity (in particular, the rights of women). We work at all levels - global and local, with international governments and global institutions, local communities and individuals - to make sure that these rights are protected and that the best solutions to people's suffering are implemented. Our values as an organisation are founded upon our experiences. We know that poverty can only be overcome once the fundamental human rights of impoverished others are secured and our three main values as an organisation - empowerment, accountability, inclusiveness - reflect this. Empowerment - our approach means that everyone involved with Oxfam, from our staff and supporters to people living in poverty, should feel they can make change happen. Accountability - our purpose driven, results-focused approach means we take responsibility for our actions and hold ourselves accountable; we believe that others should also be held accountable for their actions. Inclusiveness - we are open to everyone and embrace diversity; we believe everyone has a contribution to make, regardless of visible and invisible differences.
