Every young person deserves the chance to learn, succeed and shape their future. runs high-quality schools in rural, underserved communities across Africa and works with governments to improve education.聽

Viola鈥檚 journey

Viola鈥檚 journey
Getting an education was not easy for Viola. As a girl she walked twelve kilometres to school and the same distance home, often through heavy rain, reaching class wet and tired. She kept at it, because she knew what an education would unlock.

The road to school

The road to school
For young people growing up in rural communities like this one, secondary school can be a long way from home. PEAS builds schools where the need is greatest, bringing a quality education closer to young people who might otherwise miss out.

From pupil to teacher

From pupil to teacher
Viola now teaches at the school where she was once a student. Her students call her a role model. She wants them to see what she has seen for herself: that education can open up choices for their future.
