We are implementing humanitarian, educational and development projects so that each child has access to their fundamental rights. In close partnership with the communities involved, we are taking action to improve living conditions and access to education.
Provide the children of the world with the means to build their future!
Bread Oven Boma DRC
The project created an income generating activity by the construction of a production unit with an outdoor oven to bake bread. A group of mothers who are motivated to raise funds to enable their children to go to school sell the bread baked on site. Funds raised are used to pay for their children’s school fees and supplies
Our Goals
By investing in this project we
Reduce the rates of children dropping out from school mainly due to lack of funds and improve the future prospects of the next generation. Through their education children will be given the skills and knowledge they need to increase their ability to earn an income and build a better future.
The mothers are the change makers. The mothers know that a better education brings better employment opportunities for their children and so we want to shift the power back to mothers. They have rallied together around this project and we want to invest in their efforts to help all their children and especially their daughters to stay in school. Their participation in the sale of the bread made at the charity owned oven and their participation in the organisation allows them to earn and have power to take action.
Our role
