TOGETHER, TRANSFORMING!

The global pandemic had a severe economic and social impact upon those we work with at Friends, which they are still recovering from.

Schools closed, and for many online lessons were simply not an option.

Jobs were lost, and financial hardships for families ensued.

This year our appeal focuses on building futures through ’together, transforming’   

• We want to ensure that children return to school, and have the extra-curricular support they need following the impact of the pandemic on their education.
• We want families to get all the help they need from us to keep their children in school.
• We want young people and caretakers to have access to skills training, and to decent employment or business startup opportunities once they have completed that training.

At Friends-International, we know from three decades of experience that access to education and training for employment are key to building sustainable futures for all the children, youth and families our programs work with.
