Friends of Monze achievements in 12 years

Over 4,800 children are being educated in 17 safe dry schools we have built, and more school building is planned. We have built or completed 13 houses for qualified teachers.

  • With literacy levels low we are working to equip schools with enough reading and text books, desks and solar powered laptops. We have provided sports equipment and drums. 

  • To improve nutrition for children and communities we established 10 school gardens growing vegetables and fruit. By teaching permaculture gardening we have enabled communities to grow food crops in a sustainable manner using natural fertiliser and water harvesting. 

  • To provide water for consumption and irrigation we drilled or repaired 30 boreholes. We also teach hand-washing and soapmaking to prevent the spread of infecion.

  • We teach human rights and menstrual hygiene in schools and communities to prevent early forced marriage and improve girls future life chances.
