Education

Education is the great equalizer. For every year a child stays in school, his or her future earning potential increases 15 to 25 percent. Today, 72 million primary school-aged children are not in school, and two-thirds of those uneducated children are girls. Access to safe schools, trained teachers, textbooks, supplies and tuition fees can help to break the brutal cycle of poverty. Without intervention, however, millions of students will not make it past the fifth grade or have the opportunity to attend school at all. Through members of our charity alliance,our partners are helping to address education needs.


Our team of committed staff is ready to work with you to achieve sustainable change in education worldwide. For more information, contact us via email or call 703.717.5200.
