Gifts which support Education

Give a child or adult the gift of an education. By buying these gifts, you are contributing to education projects run by Tearfund’s partners that give the gift of a brighter, more empowered future. Projects could support pre-school and primary aged children, or adults who didn’t get the opportunity for an education when they were younger, and want to learn the valuable skills of reading, writing and numeracy. Other elements like school packs, teacher training and community engagement are often part of education projects.

In Sindh province in rural Pakistan, Tearfund’s partner the Diocese of Hyderabad runs literacy classes for adults, and trains local people like Aman (pictured), who is in secondary school and helps her mother run female adult literacy classes in their village.

Another woman, Tulsi, says that running adult literacy classes has given her a new perspective. “Educating these ladies has given me confidence to share my opinion with the people in the village.”

“Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me.” Mark 9:37
