YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 307071) Eastbourne College exists to provide the best possible education for boys and girls. An Eastbourne College education develops pupils academically, broadens their experience outside the classroom, reinforces agreed values and prepares them to play a full and effective role in society. A community rather than an institution, the College offers cutting-edge educational innovation and facilities combined with a strong academic profile and an impressive pastoral reputation. The College Foundation and Development Office raises funds for bursaries and facilities and has a development plan entitled A vision for the future. Thanks to generous donations, the first project in this plan, the Birley Centre, was officially opened on 4 October 2011. The Centre is a first-class facility and dynamic hub for the creative arts for pupils and the local community. We would like to thank our supporters as our campaign continues to raise funds for: · bursaries - so that pupils from all backgrounds can enjoy the benefits and opportunities of a College education · a redeveloped dining hall and social centre · a sports centre · a new academic teaching block
(US, 311562134) Altevette Project
(UK, 1177053) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00Altevette Project funds the development and support of a school project for disadvantaged girls in the high altitude and remote region of Upper Mustang in Nepal near the border with Tibet. Girls in this area are vulnerable to extreme poverty and exploitation and have little opportunity for education due to the lack of schools at high altitude in such remote and harsh regions. The educational system of Upper Mustang has as its foundation the Buddhist doctrine and, with rare exceptions, there are no other schools outside of the monasteries and religious communities. Our students receive a full government secular school curriculum, 3 languages, Tibetan, Nepali and English as well as learning Buddhist ritual activities and Buddhist instruments such as gongs, cymbals, trumpet etc The school opened in 2012, with 15 girls and 4 teachers and we've grown at an almost unbelievable rate to where we are today - over 50 girls aged 5 to 21 in school, 9 teachers and 6 support staff, all of whom are fully resident and live full time at the school and 8 part time teachers, taking subject specific higher education classes. The school is currently licenced with the National Education Ministry to offer education for children from lower kindergarten to Grade 12.
