School Renovations
There is no feeling in the world that tops putting a genuine smile on a child’s face. Underprivileged children the world over often have little or no access to a quality education. Those who do end up in schools with crumbling infrastructure (quite literally!) where the school grounds and buildings are in a poor state. This not only creates a negative aura for learning but also poses a very real safety risk.
Our school renovations programs are engaging and fun. You can expect to paint murals, refresh classrooms from inside and outside, start vegetable gardens or assist in basic repair work. All materials will be provided to you and our staff will guide you to ensure safety. Most of our renovations projects are basic and will not require you to be expert builders! All you need is enthusiasm and willingness to work hard and get your hands dirty!
