" To give hope and opportunity to the children of Gitombo
through A Christ - Centered education."
“The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you.” – B.B. King
You can make a difference.
Education can change the entire course of a child’s life in Gitombo village
Be a part of the change.
Education is “the passport to human development.” Sponsor-A-Classroom gives quality education to children.
Education is the most powerful, sustainable resource to help our children change their lives and their communities.
Access to top school teachers, school supplies, and educational books are scarce and expensive.
PAAV Gitombo Community School has been providing education to vulnerable children in Gitombo village since 2014. For parents who cannot afford an education, PAAV Gitombo supports their child’s education for free – but, nothing is free. PAAV Gitombo School funds the learning materials, meals and teacher salaries.
