EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Quality education for all is a top priority in the third world. While most students have access to some form of education, in disadvantaged communities this is limited by lack of resources, cramped classrooms and inadequately trained teachers.
Education is the key to development. Development helps erase poverty. A major obstacle to achieving a secure livelihood is illiteracy. Attacking illiteracy is a long-term strategy in the struggle against poverty. For poor families in the developing world, school costs force parents to choose which of their children will have the chance to learn. Helping Hands International will help break the cycle of illiteracy with:
Distribution of Learning Materials and Execution of Education Programs
Expansion of basic education
Creation of Professional Training Centers
Programs Development that Improve Education
Opportunities in rural Areas
Effective Support of Alphabetization in the Third World
Strengthening Relationships between Rural Schools and Communities
