Every day, children wake up and do chores instead of going to school.
But you can step in and change the equation for them.
Quality education is essential to breaking the cycle of poverty.
90% of a child’s brain development happens by age 5.
This makes preschool critical to set children up for success.
You can prepare 1,408 students to sustain themselves and their families in the future, and equip them to become leaders, decision makers, and influencers to bring positive and lasting change in Malawi.
Why is Your Partnership Needed?
• In Malawi, 70% of young children do not have access to early childhood education.
• The average ratio of a primary school class is 70 students to 1 teacher.
• Only 69% of primary students go on to secondary school.• In the National Exam, students consistently perform the poorest in math and science.
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” – Nelson Mandela
