Story

This project provides 20+ orphaned and vulnerable Swati high school students with all the tools they need to succeed in school, and enter the next phase of life as confident, motivated and responsible young adults. Along with providing all necessary materials and tuition costs to attend school, we also teach sustainable skills, host motivational workshops and provide guidance, mentor-ship and psycho-social support to our sponsored students within Lobamba Lomdzala, Eswatini (FKA Swaziland).

Impact

Having a high school diploma undoubtedly increases opportunity for our students. Along with obtaining a diploma, it is the confidence, sense of responsibility and self-sustaining nature that we observe in our alumni that shows us just how much this project can do for each student. A holistic sponsorship will not only lead to a full high school education for these 20+ students, it leads to membership in a supportive and nurturing community for many years after high school is complete.

Challenge

Only primary school is free in Eswatini. With limited government assistance for high school, many students are forced to end their education with grade 7. Yet, opportunities for those without a high school diploma are declining. Also, students who get random sponsorship often struggle immensely without structured support as situations at home impede on their ability to attend and focus in school. As living costs increase, this project will allow us to maintain this well established program.
