The need
244 million children are out of school worldwide. In Sub-Saharan Africa, 90% of the children who are in school are not learning effectively due to a lack of learning resources and safe learning environments, nutritious meals and healthcare, low capacity of teachers and other barriers such as distance and costs.
You can change the future of hundreds of children living in poverty by ensuring they are enrolled and attending a quality, local school in their remote village.
Without an investment in education, and no funding for schools and teachers – many children will be left behind and may never see the inside of a classroom.
Only 27% of school-age children in Mpigi district are enrolled in primary school

Textbooks and teaching material is rare and inadequate
Children often stay at home and help with income producing chores
Poor academic performance because of a lack of support at home
The objective
This project tackles the education crisis on two fronts:
- Providing schools and education for children in last mile communities
- Providing children in East Africa with the opportunity to receive a quality education. This project offers an empowered future - securing better jobs, earning sustainable incomes and breaking free from the poverty cycle
