“My children dropped out of school because there were no public schools nearby, and our financial situation didn’t allow us to enroll them in private schools. The children in the neighborhood used to bully them for being uneducated.When I found Educate Me community schools and my children were accepted, I fell to the ground in gratitude to God and cried. I couldn’t believe that my children would have a second chance at education.Their mental state improved significantly, they made many friends, and their self-confidence increased. They also became better at expressing themselves and sharing their thoughts and ideas.”
These words from Mohamed and Menna’s parent reassure us that we are on the right path. They remind us of our significant vision: education is another opportunity for a better life and a brighter future. Education is not a choice; it is a necessity.
