Challenge

Impact International School (IIS) has prioritized the educational needs of students who have experienced abuse or neglect, children in foster care, and those with autism.

Solution

This fundraising helps provide books, pens, uniforms, and build a school for over 450 children in Rural Freetown. They receive relevant and effective writing, literacy, numeracy, communication skills, and values.

Long-Term Impact

Impact focuses on care for critical thinking and learning, and plans to provide a facilitative learning environment for 450 children. The Sub-Saharan evidence-based approach is 'Teaching at the Right Level In Resource-Limited Settings' (TaRL), which targets improving grade literacy and numeracy, and demonstrated significant gains in student test scores for schools located in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.
