We’re helping Hands-on
The Joule Foundation
The Joule Foundation is in the business of changing and shaping lives! The work we do aims at giving African girls a chance to dream and achieve, well beyond their imaginations.
Research has shown that economic, social, and cultural factors contribute to the poor retention rates of African girls in STEAM. Our goal is to remove these limitations and ensure that young girls who demonstrate high levels of academic aptitude are not prevented from pursuing education and careers in STEAM. We strongly believe the saying that “if you educate a woman, you educate a generation” as women are more likely to encourage their children to pursue higher education.

What People Are Saying ?
I learned that both girls and boys can study STEAM subjects and pursue careers in STEAM.
TJF Student
My parents and relatives have always discouraged me, I want to be an aircraft engineer. Now I can tell them that it is possible and I will make sure that my younger sister develops the same attitude that I have
TJF Student
First, I will work hard and be more selective about the company I [keep] so that I can achieve my dreams of becoming an engineer. I’ll inspire other girls to involve themselves in STEAM
TJF Student
I am going to study hard and remove the slogan in my mind that ‘Math is difficult’, anything is possible
