The Rwandan school year is January-December. During our 2013 summer trip, we had the opportunity to work closely with the headmaster of the school and discuss the school's current situation. As many as 100 students dropped out of school during the 2013 school year because they were unable to pay their school fees. The headmaster is very passionate about reaching out to these students who have dropped out (or who are on the verge of dropping out because they have not paid in several months) and helping them come back and complete their education.
Because of your donations, we were able to help 46 students finish the 2013 school year. We look forward to continuing this partnership in the future.
The cost to scholarship a student for an entire school year is $200. This covers everything the child needs to complete the year. When you sponsor a child, we will send you a card with some basic information about your child as a reminder to be praying for him or her. If you are interested in partnering with this school through One27, please email lws1979@gmail.com.
