Vision

To create a world of educated, empowered and enlightened people.

Mission

Our Mission is to promote education and development in the following ways:

• Build schools in areas where access to basic education is limited
• Establish income-generating projects that teach students life skills and allow the schools to be self-supporting
• Foster regenerative natural resource activities within the communities where the schools are located
• Educate the US public about other countries and cultures and raise awareness of the interdependent nature of the world

Goals

• Join together with local people to build schools in communities in developing countries, utilizing local resources and skills.
• Emphasize positive traditional African cultural values in school curriculums, such as resolving conflict in group, studying traditional proverbs, and working together rather than competing.
• Incorporate conservation and renewal of natural resources in school construction and in the curriculum of the schools we help build.
• Include literacy classes for women in our school programs.
