School-Level Sponsorship Program

The primary objective of our School-Level Sponsorship Program is to prevent students from dropping out of school due to financial hardships. This initiative is designed to encourage regular school attendance and ensure students remain in school until they successfully complete their high school education.

To achieve this, our dedicated field officers closely monitor and support sponsored students, ensuring their consistent school attendance and overall well-being. Additionally, we track each student’s academic progress, and detailed progress reports are shared with sponsors at the end of every term.

Our Impact (As of 2022):

To ensure proper structure and continuity, all sponsorships commence in either January or July each year.

Through this initiative, we aim to break the cycle of poverty, reduce school dropouts, and empower young individuals with education, giving them the foundation they need to build a brighter future for themselves and their communities.
