Dear Supporter of Education:

 

Meet Mahoy Soy, a 14-year-old girl living in Cambodia.

Each and every day she helps support her family by laboring in the rice 

fields on her parent’s farm, while also taking care of her two younger siblings. 

 

After United World Schools opened a facility in Mahoy’s village, she – 

along with the thousands of other young people UWS is currently working with – now have access to a basic education. This is the first step towards creating a better future for Mahoy and her family, as she develops skills that will allow her to work outside of the rice fields and in the wider Cambodian society.

 

This February, UWS opened its 100th school across the developing countries of Cambodia, Burma and Nepal. Since then, two more schools have opened and none of this would have been made possible without the incredible support of all our generous donors. To continue our mission of improving educational opportunities for some of the world’s poorest children living in remote and marginalized communities, we need your help. 

 

How can you help?

• $5 buys a child educational resources for a month

• $10 puts a desk in a classroom in Cambodia

• $20 provides clean drinking water for a classroom

• $50 buys reading books for a classroom in Nepal

 

When you donate, you are not only giving a child a proper education – you are giving them a chance at a better life. By donating as little as one dollar, you can keep a young person in school for a week. UWS has already provided education to more than 18 000 children who would not otherwise have had the chance to go to school. With your donation, this number will only continue to rise. 

 

Why are we different? 

We work where we are wanted and where we are needed. The countries we have chosen to work with are ones where our donors’ dollars will make the biggest difference. We plan our exit from the outset. Once a school is successful and self-governing it is handed over to the local community, becoming part of the country’s education system. We are an educational charity independent of any political, faith or cultural missions. We have no shareholders nor does any person or company benefit from our income or assets.

 

United World Schools has a vision for a world in which all children have the chance to go to school. Please help us make this dream a reality by donating today. Education should not be a privilege; it should be a right.

Warmest regards,
