Challenge

Many children in our community live in conditions of extreme poverty. Most of them come from families that cannot afford school expenses.

Solution

With these scholarships, we will cover all school expenses for 25 children in our community. This includes your school supplies, uniforms, and lunch. Donors will have the opportunity to help these children receive their basic right to education

Long-Term Impact

The benefits of our feeding & scholarship programs are already being seen. This past year, three youth from the program began studying at universities on scholarships. This would not have been possible without the care we were able to provide for these individuals. As the program continues, and the children grow, we expect to see more children graduating and moving on to become college educated. This will stop the cycle of poverty and provide a different life trajectory for the next generation.
