Education

A Life Changing Opportunity

For many who live in countries stricken by poverty, even basic literacy is out of reach, leaving many to work unskilled, often dangerous jobs, for pay too small to care for themselves or their families. These circumstances create conditions that leave children vulnerable, often destitute, placed in the care of others or worse, alone. Providing a child with even a basic education will allow them to pursue better jobs, creating future opportunities for themselves, and their future families. Providing an education is a critical step toward breaking the cycle that creates orphans.

“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
— William B. Yeats

Simply finishing high school will provide these children with a better opportunity for employment and most certainly help make their inevitable transition into adulthood less challenging. They will become productive members of their society and fill roles that are much needed in the future.

Primary Education

Support a Child’s pursuit of a higher form of education. While simply receiving a primary and secondary education can provide them a much higher chance of moving beyond poverty, pursuing a skilled trade or professional education can change their lives for the better and fill roles that are of great need in their communities.
