Programme 01

Learning Without Barriers

Classrooms, teacher stipends and school kits for children displaced by conflict and poverty.

We rebuild damaged classrooms, pay retention stipends to local teachers, and deliver learning kits so a child never loses a school year to circumstance. Every school we support signs a five-year community stewardship agreement.

Reach
62,400 pupils enrolled

Nigeria · Niger · Ghana

Programme 02

Clean Water Circles

Solar boreholes, hygiene training and community-run maintenance funds in dry-belt villages.

Each borehole is paired with a trained village water committee and a small maintenance fund, which is why 96% of the wells we drilled in 2019 are still flowing today.

Reach
118 boreholes drilled
