Education
Crisis

Over 67% of Zimbabwe’s schoolchildren do not have access to holistic, quality education that will ensure they can reach their full potential. Some of the key problems include:

Poor Learning Facilities
Shortage of Leaning Materials
Inadequate Teaching Staff
Overcrowded Classrooms

The Problem

The widening economic crisis in Zimbabwe is contributing to a continuous decline in the quality of education at high-need schools. More than 1.2 Million children of school-going age (3-16 years old) are out of school (UNICEF)

Only 11% of learners do not continue to secondary school

Only 26% of rural children start primary education at age 6.

Only 14.9 % of Zimbabwean learners complete secondary education.

Help them to get a good education.

Do you envision a situation where all Zimbabwean children, regardless of their socioeconomic status, have the education, support, and opportunity to shape a better future for themselves and our country?
