Education is one of the most powerful tools to not only reduce poverty and inequality, but also lay a foundation for economic growth.
Many children in Africa get some form of schooling but, a large number of them do not complete their education because some families cannot afford to continue sending their children to school and paying for basic school supplies.
According to the UNESCO Institute for Statistics, Africa has the lowest primary education completion ratio in the world. In fact, about 62% of African students complete primary education, in comparison to 94% in North America, 90% in Europe, and 88% in Asia.
Above cases are common in many small towns and villages in Africa. We have many similar projects across the continent.
These children need us to keep their dreams of attaining good careers alive and giving them the ability to reach this goal is the reason for AFACE's existance.
