As-salamu Alaykum everyone,
My sisters and me are hoping to change the lives of children in Borundi. We are hoping to help build a school for the children. We have made the intention to complete the trek on the 24th of July to raise money. Please help us achieve our target!
May Allah SWT accept all your donations and reward you for your efforts.
Hope and Knowledge for Burundi. The children will receive both an academic education and Quranic education. With your help, they will get further in life and develop as individuals who will contribute to their society in a positive manner, InshaAllah.
Why Burundi? In 2015, the primary school enrolment rate for children in Burundi (aged 5-14) was 61% with only a 66% completion rate for primary education. Furthermore, 26% of children have to work alongside their education. The student teacher ratio in Burundi in 2011 was 29.4:1. Around 25% of the country's schools were destroyed during a long lasting civil war which ended in 2006 and many teachers were killed or became internally displaced.
Please help us to build up the future of Burundi and give them the HOPE and KNOWLEDGE.
Many thanks from Shelly, Shammy & Nish.
