Summary

Luke Sassano has teamed with CHF to support Secure the School, Secure the Child, focused on providing educational support to more than 45,000 orphaned and vulnerable children in Rwanda.

What is the issue, problem, or challenge?

You can give the gift of knowledge, hope, and empowerment to more than 45,000 orphaned and vulnerable children in Rwanda. Your donation will support a variety of youth, making it possible for them to attain an education that is otherwise impossible without the funds to pay for school fees and materials. With the help of Luke Sassano and funders like you, CHF can give the youth of Rwanda the chance to seek greater heights and broaden their horizons through the power of knowledge!

How will this project solve this problem?

CHF aims to promote the equal rights of every child through securing school grounds, providing separate latrines, sanitary supplies and a female advisor for girls and promoting the participation of caregivers through PTAs and participatory boards.

Potential Long Term Impact

By removing many obstacles facing children to enter school, this program gives them the ability to gain a full education in a safe & formal arrangement. Educating young generations helps to stop the cycle of violence, crime and poverty.

Project Message

“A simple elementary and high school education will give these children the knowledge and confidence that can give them opportunities that they could have only dreamed of before."
- Luke Sassano, New York Red Bulls, MLS
