We have been granted the land to build a new school in Burkina Faso! The current school is old, small, and overcrowded. In addition to the new school we will be reviving an existing water well. Students currently access water from standing pools of water shared with livestock or travel a great deal of distance to access clean water from unsafe open wells.

Elementary school (Ecole Premiere De Nimina) is 6 grade levels of education. $2.08 US Dollars is the Scholarship cost to send a child to school for a year. Most children are not gifted the opportunity to finish their elementary schooling and are pulled to go work in the fields due to lack of family funds for schooling.
Secondary School (Lycee/ Secondaire De Nimina) is 4 years of education. If children are able to afford the 4 years of education they get the opportunity to take a state test at the end of their 4th year to continue education to become a teacher, a police officer, or what we hope will be anything they want. This is our goal for all the children. The Scholarship cost for Secondary Schooling for children from Nimina is $41.60 and scholarship cost for children traveling from outside villages is $54.10
We encourage interested individuals and organizations all over the world to help us make a difference in a child’s life. You can support us with fundraising events, make an online donation, and/or register as volunteers.
