Education Assistance

Our members DIRECTLY provide education assistance to the local children. We believe that person-to-person interaction is the most powerful and effective way of getting to know the students and can actually help them.

Summary

Volunteers provide learning programs in primary and high schools in rural areas in collaboration with the school. Sample courses include English, writing, arts, and world geography. Through their involvement in both curricular and extracurricular activities, volunteers pass on knowledge to students and serve as a window to the world at large.

Because of the low education attainment of the rural population in general, people do not immediately perceive the advantages of reading or how it can open up new doors.

Facts at a Glance:

In rural schools, school libraries are generally no more than a name. The public libraries which are only located at the county seat level only have average book reserves of less than 0.1 copies per capita for the local population.

---

In rural communities, where the average number of years of education attained by the population is only 7.6 years, and children there are 282 times less likely to meet an adult with a college degree than children in urban areas, reading as a need for the person and as a must for making a better life does not easily establish.
