About The School Teacher
Education is unattainable for the average person in Mathare. Opening a public school in Matahre makes education attainable, equitable, and accessible. Our mission is to help provide the resources for students to become independent and reach equity.
About this image
This is a school teacher and her previous students standing on the ground where the school has been built. The students are holding the design of their future school!
Students pay 25 dollars a month to attend school, and the average citizen of Mathare makes two dollars a day. The people of Mathare work hard daily, yet education is unattainable for the average person. Women are forced into poverty-based prostitution because there is no access to learn a trade or attend high school. The school teacher in this photo puts all her money and effort into educating students on her own salary.
