Build a School

Across rural Africa, many children have to choose between getting an education and being safe. Without classrooms, they are forced to study under trees, in all weather. They are exposed to the elements, distracted, and unable to learn. For those who do have some shelter, it is often unstable, with holes in the ceiling that let the rain in, leaving children cold and wet, and ruining their work. In sub-Saharan Africa, 35 million primary age children are out of school. We're building safe and secure classrooms, so that children can focus on their learning, and their futures.

This program is run by Build Africa. Street Child are delighted to announce that Build Africa has joined the Street Child family.
