Introduction
By creating engaging classrooms in low-income communities through strategic school systems DIFF EDUCATION gives every child in Africa access to primary education, equipping them with the tools needed to succeed in life. Additionally, in light of the fact that 60% of our classrooms are filled with girls, our mission and goal is to end illiteracy for girls and promote gender equality.
The project will use specially created construction kits that will allow everyday residents to build the school structures. Since there is such a need to improve access to education, we wanted to make sure that we considered every aspect of school development that will still keep the community hands-on. Additionally, we desire that by having the community build the school, they will take even more of a vested interest in the school so that the school can last for years to come.
Values
Integrity
The youth are the world’s most precious possessions and so we make it a top goal to operate with integrity. We want to not only have integrity with our donors and partners but the youth population we work with. It helps foster a relationship that we believe to be meaningful and long-lasting.
Accountability
In line with integrity, accountability is another high organizational value for us. By staying accountable, we stay on track to align with our organization’s mission. In addition to helping us meet our growth goals, accountability helps us build long-term relationships with our partners.
Reliable
Reliability is essential for our organization to be dependable for our stakeholders and the clients we serve. It reminds us to deliver on all of our commitments and promises.
Focus On Our Children
Empowerment
Providing our children with education, we believe, empowers them to see their strengths and abilities, allowing them to flourish and achieve success in all other areas of their lives.
Leadership
We strive to promote leadership among our youth scholars by providing them with a solid education that builds confidence in them and inspires them to become leaders. This will occur through the use of specific and intentional programs.
Sexual Education
In order to provide holistic education, we also provide our scholars with additional education beyond academics, which includes sexual education and hygiene training as part of a life skill education program. This is especially important for the girls that we serve.
