Every child wants to learn, and every child has the right to an education. UNESCO reports 264 million of boys and girls are denied access to education.
From poverty and household chores, child labour to conflict and child marriage, children face multiple barriers in their quest for a quality education. Joshua's Home and her coalition of charities are working to ensure that every child has the opportunity to graduate from high school and reach his/her full potential.
Pupils who complete secondary school are more likely to escape poverty and to see their own children survive and thrive.
In many countries around the world, there are multiple barriers standing in the way of girls getting an education, ranging from insufficient or unsafe transportation, to the high cost of books and other necessary learning materials to gender norms at a community level.
An important part of Joshua's Home global mission in education is to work with sponsors to strengthen programs that have been shown to positively impact student enrollment, attendance and learning-programs like school feeding programs, school fee waivers, bicycle transportation and child care . Joshua's Home Inc and partners have found pathways through which different types of social protection measures can address barriers to education across childhood and adolescence.
From building schools and training teachers, to providing tuition assistance, school supplies and innovative e-learning programs, our education efforts unlock the minds of students and empower them to not just survive, but to thrive.
When you invest in education, you invest in the unlimited promise of human potential to create a brighter, more equitable world for all. Join us in eliminating illiteracy, eradicating poverty, and cultivating generations of thinkers and leaders.
