Develop Schools
Sri Lanka has approximately 10,000 schools. The schools are in need of help from the international community. There is only a handful of qualified English teachers available in the country. The battle the country is facing in the provision of basic education is enormous. Please help by either joining our team as a volunteer or telling others about our project. You can adopt a childs education, or link schools with schools in Sri Lanka. You can also suggest other ways in which you can help Sri Lanka.
Below are pictures of schools and teacher training colleges we are working with.
