Gifts which support learning

We all know an education is important. There are many difficulties people face if they can't read or write, or don't have basic numeracy. Without the ability to read basic signs, information and forms, such as paperwork to enrol in school, people miss out on opportunities to better their life.

These gifts help to provide people with the gift of learning and empower them to improve their life. The gifts fund projects and programs that come under our Basic Education banner. The projects deliver education to children and adults through teacher training, school supplies and equipment, as well as helping children gain access to local government schooling.
