Go the Distance for Kids' Education- Global 2024

Children go to enormous lengths to get to school.

Millions have to fight against obstacles like poverty, gender discrimination, forced displacement, and disability. Not to mention a miles-long and often risky walk to the nearest school, where classrooms might be overcrowded, teachers are untrained, and there is a lack of sanitary facilities.

It’s been a long journey to the classroom - in more ways than one. When they get there, children should have a quality, play-based education that meets their needs.

We go the distance for children to make sure that when they get to school, they can learn from trained teachers in safe and inclusive classrooms. That their lessons engage them in learning and support their academic skills and personal development. And that they can use their voice to claim their rights and inspire others.

Will you go the distance for kids and give them the education they deserve? Sign up today.


QUALITY EDUCATION UNLOCKS FUTURES

What happens when you go the distance for kids? When children get an education that meets their needs, they’re more likely to be healthy, less likely to experience poverty, and better able to pursue their dreams.
