Dear friends and colleagues,
As the world is facing a lot of natural and man made disasters, more and more children are falling through the formal school system. Worse still, some children are in the middle of wars and other disasters and have no hope of ever going to school. It is in such circumstances, that Chiedza saw the need to support children who have never accessed school by 8 years, and or dropped out before completing school. The program started with less than 10 children in 2010 and with your support is now able to support over 200 children annually.
Some have exceptionally done well through the second chance education program, and of those 10 have reached university level. This is amazing, considering that these children had lost hope to make it in life. With the world becoming a global village and technology becoming the glue that connects communities, education is more than a social need but a must-have for children.
Thank you so much for being part of our story, for changing somone's life, for being the hope and light in darkness for these children. Kindly keep telling your friends and networks to support our cause. We still have more and more children who are out of school and needs our support. We use the funds to buy books, desks, chairs, buy food, pay volunteers stipends, buy uniforms and pay school fees.
