Teach A Man To Fish (UK, 1112699) Browse events

YTD Raised: £1,875.00

At Teach A Man To Fish we believe that education is the real key to tackling global poverty. We support pioneering education projects in some of the worlds poorest countries - giving young people a chance to learn the skills to help themselves. Our approach is unique in aiming for long-term financial sustainability. Alongside class-based lessons, student-run businesses generate income which helps cover the schools costs, an education that pays for itself! So when our students leave school they not only have a qualification, but entrepreneurial and practical skills which they can use to earn a living. Successful projects to date have supported Ugandan schools in pig keeping, funded poor Kenyan students through a school run poultry farm and helped a school in Paraguay become completely self-sufficient. Teach a Man to Fishs Escuela Agricola project in Paraguay was last year named the Runner Up in the BBCs global World Challenge awards, which celebrate enterprise and innovation at a grass roots level.
