Plan International Distance Itself From WhatsApp Group Link In Circulation

Plan international has disassociated itself from a WhatsApp Group Link circulating inviting young girls who are not in school to register to be supported with their education under the organisation’s project branded  Supporting Adolescent Girls Education (SAGE), Gemnation reports.

A statement released by Plan International says while they do have a project called Supporting Adolescent Girls Education (SAGE) that is indeed actively helping adolescent girls with their schooling, they have not engaged any third parties to mobilise the girls on their behalf. Part of the statement released by Plan reads:

We are concerned that the originators of these messages may have malicious intent and should be ignored. The fake messages and links should not be shared onwards. The relevant authorities are being engaged to investigate the intentions of the fake WhatsApp group administrator.

It said identifying a real Plan International message from a fake one is extremely important, and the following is how this can be done:
· Plan International assistance and services are free. Plan International does not request any payment from individuals to be part of its projects.
· Plan International will not ask you to provide personal information about children or ask for photographs, without a prior and direct engagement with us.
· Plan does not communicate organisational information through third parties and on informal platforms.
· Anyone doing the above is not from Plan International but a fraudulent individual usurping our identity.

Plan international prioritises and is committed to safeguarding children and young people from any harm that may be as a result of its programmes or projects.
