The Princess Taghrid Institute For Development And Training (PTI) was founded with a noble purpose: to empower and rehabilitate orphaned and abandoned girls who have reached the age of 18. These young women often face discrimination, labeling, and rejection when reintegrated into the local community. PTI stands as a beacon of hope and support for them, providing essential resources, education, and training to help them thrive.
