As a family, we have all been extremely privileged to  be able to finish primary school, high school and have the opportunity to go to university. However, there are millions of people who aren't so lucky. 

For example, in the Mtwara region in Tanzania:

• 40% of children drop out of school before their 10th birthday 
• Only 3% of children manage to complete secondary education
• 95% of children living with a disability don’t attend classes at all
• Girls regularly miss 25% of their lessons once they reach puberty, if not more. 100,000 girls drop out of school every year – many due to pregnancy.

EdUKaid is a charity dedicated to improving education in rural Tanzania. Since 2003 they have helped 14,000 children to access better education, renovated 16 primary schools and built 15 pre-primary classrooms, trained 32 teachers, upskilled over 500 local community members, provided 1000 desks and over 10,000 books.

By donating $5, you could buy a child a solar lamp to study in the evenings. $25 could pay for a basic handwashing system and reduce preventable illnesses. By donating $50, you could buy a wheelchair, enabling a disabled child to get to school each day.
