EMPOWERING AND IMPROVING THE COMMUNITY WHILE BUILDING ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY
We not only desire to improve the educational outcomes for the youth of the community, but to also create lasting, economic change. To that end, we have implemented programs to help foster that change.
We provide seeds to local farmers to plant so that they can grow and harvest crops that will nourish the community. In doing this, we have helped to create a sustainable practice that allows the community to move towards self-sufficiency, while improving the overall health of the residents with nutritious, affordable, locally produced food.
Additionally, we have partnered with a local craftsperson to create an apprenticeship program where youth can gain valuable, employable skills. The projects that they work on while learning these skills are offered to the community at a reduced rate, creating an all-encompassing system that benefits the greater community in multiple ways, in a manner that promotes self-determination and sustainability.

Our most recent project with him has beautified and furnished our school, and we are so grateful and proud of this collaboration and their hard work.
