Classrooms for Africa
“The Power Of One Classroom To Make A Difference.”

Our Vision
Our mission is that between 2020 and 2025 over 15,000 more children will receive a quality values-based education in adequate facilities.
This can be accomplished through the construction of three hundred plus new classrooms. With an average cost of $10,000 per classroom, our budget forecast is $3.3 million. Depending on the location of the school, the cost of constructing a classroom ranges from $9,500 to $12,000.
