Education Fund

  1. A key to breaking the cycle of poverty that traps so many of the children in our community care programme is education. The education fund has been set up to allow some of our supporters who feel they would like to direct their funding more specifically in the area of education.

    Lucila did so well at her primary leaving exam we felt we had to offer her the chance to continue in secondary school outside of the goverment education system where she had been offered a place. She managed to pass the entrance exam to Faraja Seminary and was over the moon at being offered a place.



Peter who is an AIDS orphan also got a good pass in primary seven and with our intervention was able to get a placement at one of the better government boarding schools in the region instead of a local under-funded and under-staffed village school.

Happiness was just full of happiness when she was told we were offering her the opportunity to go to a vocational training centre her in town for a one year home-craft course. There she will learn how to use a sewing machine, knit, crochet, cook, and be able to brush up her basic academic studies.



There are many other children who could use YOUR help - why not make a change in the life direction of one of these young people that we have been supporting by making a gift to the education fund.
