*We have a new Christian pre-school program, along with after-school tutoring and Bible study for older children .
Public schools are very underfunded, especially in rural areas. We supply many schools with both teaching ,school supplies and other materials and furnishings they need. Below is a classroom at a school we have begun partnering with in a rural mountain area.
We do a Bible School in every village we work in!
We funded a second story on a church to build classrooms. THEY WORKED SO HARD!
Scholarships are given to struggling families at both Christian and public schools. Public schools also usually invite us to do a Bible school when we visit. It is common for children to not even finish 4th grade but gradually the importance of education is being relized by many parents. Scholarships are only $200 a year and are given for students elementary school up to help with college degrees, Donations can be sent to our Amarillo office or through Venmo at: Child Outreach International.
