Classroom building for poor street children

Summary

We are proposing to build classroom building for poor street children with dedicated teachers, new facilities, and flushing toilets to help our school standout among other rural schools' unsanitary conditions. Assist in providing excellent education to underprivileged children regardless of their gender or demographics, so that they can live and thrive and become active change agents in their communities. Beyond establishing schools, we continues to make significant strides in improving children

Challenge

65% of out-of-school children in Nigeria are girls. In Africa, Nigeria has the largest number of child brides with more than 23 million girls and women who are married as children, most of them from poor and rural communities. Without quality education, underprivileged children will not achieve their potential and end up going into early marriage or facing child labour. These are common obstacles to realizing the full potential that education can provide in rural communities in Nigeria.

Solution

This project addresses the problem affecting out-of-school children to access education and learning in a conducive environment, we can help vulnerable families improve their children's education. This project will help to build six classroom blocks for underprivileged children to have access to quality education. Contributing to this classroom project will help to reduce early marriage and sexual exploitation. This project will create opportunities for all children in underserved communities.

Long-Term Impact

Building classroom blocks for underprivileged children to have access to education will help them to break the circle of poverty and support their families. There will be relief on the burden of poor parents, who are unemployed to provide basic school supplies needed for their children to have access to education. Our goal is to sustainable program that will impact the well-being of the entire community. The school grounds and facilities will be used for children's events, STEM & health clinics.
