Who are we?

We are a group of University of Warwick students; Khushi Dhanday, Alice Sturzaker, Syaza Eudora, Shohina Ahmadbekova, and Raiyan Haq, who will be teaching Maths and English to the children and young adults of Kayamandi over the course of 6 weeks in the summer; alongside contributing towards extracurricular activties. We will get to immerse ourselves in another culture, experience life in the classroom, build personal resilience and gain a broad range of skills. This life-changing, eye-opening experience has been made possible for us by 'Warwick in Africa'. 

What is Warwick in Africa?

The student volunteering programme is only one aspect of WiA. Their primary aim is to positively impact the quality of teaching and learning in partner schools through such student volunteer placements and by providing a range of training and support activities. Currently, WiA supports 28 less privaleged schools in Ghana, South Africa and Tanzania. So far, 130,000 learners and 5,000 African teachers have benefitted from the programme since 2006.

The impact your donation could make

• £40 would cover the transport costs for five teachers to be able to attend our Teacher Workshops in Agona East, Ghana. For 30% of teachers attending the workshops, this will be the only training they receive all year.

• £700 could cover all teaching resources across the schools and teacher workshops in South Africa, providing the essential equipment tailored for the needs of more than 1,200 teachers and learners.

• £3,722 could cover the costs for one Warwick volunteer to deliver 6 weeks of high-quality education to 250 in Tanzania.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page, your donation will make a huge difference no matter how small.
