Each year we educate up to 120 children from disadvantaged and emerging families with well-trained teachers, beautiful resources/spaces, well-designed curriculum, and appropriate class sizes. 3) Our UpliftED Training Programme (UpliftED) works with existing community forums and creches, empowering teachers and principals with skills and knowledge to lead their preschools well, providing educational resources for the classrooms, monitoring and evaluating their progress, and upgrading the schools' facilities through renovations. From places of despair and frustration, we uplift women into careers with honour and future opportunity.
