Closing ceremony of the Abundant Life School of our local church

Date Posted: 06/23/2026

This year, the school welcomed 20 students from the first and second grades (CP1 and CP2), and the results were excellent at the closing ceremony. The top students received kits, and the parents' association contributed financially to build a shelter for the students. This shelter will be improved to accommodate new students for the next school year. Note: The closing ceremony took place under this shelter.

About the Cause

Posted by BF0401 in Burkina Faso on 08/03/2025

This cause aims to significantly improve the conditions in which children receive instruction. Currently, we have been able to raise funds and build two of the six classrooms and a shed for early childhood education and vocational training for young people. The classrooms are built of cement and part of the shed of mud, but there is still work to be done to properly finish the buildings. We want to provide our children and young people with a healthy and pleasant environment, with a living room with a cement floor and a well-ventilated and durable shed. This project will benefit a total of 100 children and 50 young people each year. The construction area is 1,000 m² with cinder block walls, cement floors, and a tin roof. We also want to equip each classroom with 30 desks and a desk for children under 12 years old; We also plan to increase the number of machines available to teach sewing, hairdressing, and carpentry skills to young people. We also hope to have a whiteboard in every classroom. This way, our children and youth will be able to receive their lessons in a healthy, clean, safe, and comfortable environment, so they will be motivated to return and continue learning. This will help significantly reduce the rate of children living outside of school and juvenile delinquency in our community.

How the church will sustain the Cause

Our church is an annex of a larger church that often encourages and supports the school fees of some of the church's underprivileged children and often helps cover the school fees of children in the community who are not members of the church. The church is also actively mobilizing volunteers to sponsor the children and youth who will be recruited to the center. The funds we raise will help sustain the project and allow it to welcome a larger number of students in the future.
