Educating Africa is an education focused charity that aims to support and empower girls of Afro-Caribbean descent to fulfil their potential. Our strategy is to level the playing field by providing school grants, mentoring and any support necessary.
Donations have been the backbone of the work we do and we have previously raised over £3000 to sponsor girls to school for their entire secondary school career.
We focus on secondary schools in the countries we work in, and ensure that each girl will be supported over the 5-6 years of school.
We provide support that goes beyond school fees, we also cover uniform, books, after school tuition, school bags etc.
We also organise workshops to educate and empower our girls to achieve their best outcomes during the school year. Topics covered include: personal hygiene, online safety, mental wellbeing, teenage pregnancy etc.
