Our Mission
Empowering Education International connects families struggling or unable to pay for the costs of schooling with families desiring to help.
We believe in addressing the needs of the WHOLE CHILD, the WHOLE FAMILY and the WHOLE COMMUNITY.
First, we address the financial obstacles preventing the child from attending school by offering a complete scholarship. This pays for a complete uniform, registration costs, school supplies, daily transportation to school and daily lunch money.
In many locations, we provide tutoring classes afterschool to all the children to not only go to school, but experience success.
However, knowing that true change comes only through Christ, we work with the local church to minister to these families and meet not only their physical needs, but also their spiritual and emotional ones as well.
