Hire African Women to Tell Your Stories

Cameras For Girls trains young women in Uganda, Tanzania, and soon Kenya in photography, ethical storytelling, communications, and business skills.

But training alone is not enough.

To build financial freedom through their work, our students and graduates need paid opportunities, professional networks, fair compensation, and organizations willing to open the door.

If you are a media house, NGO, company, foundation, university, or creative agency, there are several ways to work with us and help the next generation of African women storytellers get hired, get paid, and tell the stories that matter.

Testimonial

“My name is Sharon Kyatusiimire, a journalist and communications professional from Uganda. I have been part of Cameras For Girls since 2018, and I am proud to be one of the first women trained through the year-long program. What has meant the most to me is that Cameras For Girls did not stop at training. Through The Creators program, they created a pathway for graduates like me to connect with people who believe in our talent and are willing to invest in our growth.

Every Assignment Opens a Door

Every time you hire a Cameras For Girls graduate, something bigger happens than a successful project.

A young woman builds her portfolio.

She earns an income.

She expands her professional network.

She gains confidence in her craft.

And she moves one step closer to a sustainable creative career.

That's the power of choosing local talent.

Your project doesn't just tell a story, it helps write the next chapter of someone else's.
