EDUCATION WITHOUT BOUNDARIES

WHO WE HELP...African children, especially orphans by providing curriculum and supplies and assisting African teachers. Many governments are overwhelmed by their national needs.

WHERE WE HELP...Since 1997 our focus has been in Zambia in south-central Africa, In 2003 Malawi also began receiving assistance, as well. Since 2000 more than 20,000 African students and their communities benefitted through EWB offices in Zambia. HOW WE HELP... We organize gifts of supplies and quality curriculum with a character-building focus. ...Pupil books for the primary curriculum are printed in Zambia. ...We provide annual teacher training, and small honoraria to supplement low wages paid by parents through school committees.
