Rewrite Their Future

This year’s appeal is called Rewrite Their Future, and we are once again partnering with Mission Direct. Their work in Uganda and Zambia is focused on building schools and improving access to education in some of the world’s most under-resourced communities. In just the first year, the schools supported by this appeal will serve over 1,500 children—and over the next 20 years, nearly 17,000 children will gain access to education that would otherwise be out of reach.
