Education for all

Help us to improve the percentage of children continuing in secondary education and reduce the dropout rates due to financial difficulties in Boma in the Democratic Republic of Congo

      The Project

The project is to create 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 will sell the bread baked on site. Funds raised will be used to pay for their children’s school fees and suppliesThe project is to create an income generating activity by the construction of a production unit with an outdoor oven to bake bread.

    Our Goals

By investing in this project we want to:

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.

   The Project Owners

We work through local communities and our local charity partner to develop specific solutions that the local community want to adhere to. Action Mbazi are happy to work with the F.S.J.D.C in Boma in the Democratic Republic of Congo. 

  Our Role

With your help, Action Mbazi will provide the funds to build the oven and in a second phase the bakery and store room and provide the seed capital to trigger the income generating activity of bread sales. We will assist the F.S.J.D.C in ensuring that the objectives of the projects are met.

F.S.J.D.C, the local charity in Boma, will make a contribution to the build and manage the set up and running of the activity.  Overtime they will be responsible for supporting the group of mothers, checking the objectives of the projects are met  and ensuring sustainability of the project in the long term.
