Our Work

Education

Fees, books, and somewhere to study

We pay for the things that keep people in learning: fees and bursaries, books and equipment, and the supplementary classes that fill the gaps left by everything else.

Our approach


Poverty and interrupted schooling usually arrive together. Our education work is aimed at the moment a young person is about to drop out over a sum of money that is small to us and decisive to them, and at the teachers and classrooms that make staying worth it.

What this looks like


  • Supplementary schools and study support
  • Scholarships and bursaries for those who need them
  • Educational resources, equipment, and facilities
  • Adult and community learning

Who we help


Children and young people without access to quality education
Students who need financial support to keep learning
Communities lacking learning resources or facilities
Adults seeking to build skills and literacy

We would rather do a small amount of this properly than a great deal of it badly. Every gift is recorded against the purpose it was given for.
