Positions:
  1. Seeds For Hope recognizes education to be arguably the most valuable tool to break the cycle of poverty and in many cases, to preserve life.
  2. Seeds For Hope believes that true charity is not merely providing for a person's needs, but it's reminding someone of their right as a human being to have those needs met.

The Facts

    Only 57% of African children are enrolled in primary education, and one of three children do not complete school.

    134 million children between the ages of 7 to 18 have never been to school.

    For every year of education, wages increase by a worldwide average of 10 percent.

    Educated mothers tend to send their children to school, helping to break the cycle of poverty.

    In Kenya, less than 50 percent of students who finish primary will move on to high school, and 2.8 percent go to University and beyond
