MAROUF ADEYEMI e.V.
Nobody should leave school because of a fee.
Most children who stop going to school do not stop because they cannot learn. They stop because of a cost, a distance, a missing book, or a classroom nobody repaired.
The obstacle is rarely ability.
We work on the specific reasons a particular child stops: the materials that were not there, the fee that fell due in a bad month, the roof that let the rain in, the teacher who left because nobody supported them. Each one is small on its own and decisive in combination.
Six lines of work.
Direct support
- School materials and books
- Fees and scholarships
- Classroom construction and repair
Structural work
- Support and development for teachers
- Adult literacy
- Study sponsorship, including abroad
The rules we work by.
Through existing schools
We support schools that already exist and the people already teaching in them, rather than building a parallel system that depends on us.
The whole reason, not half of it
Paying a fee is pointless if the child still has no books. We look at what actually stands in the way and cover that.
No public cases
We do not publish the names or photographs of the children we support. Their circumstances are not our marketing material.
Fund it, join it, or open a door for it.
Write the programme name in the reference line of a transfer and the money is used for this programme only. If you can offer time, goods or an introduction instead, that is often worth more.
