Description

Bridge began in order to help solve a single, seemingly intractable problem; hundreds of millions of children worldwide who do not have access to schools that empower and inspire them. They help children in parts of the world where there is a shortage of learning, by boosting government schools and running complementary affordable schools. Since 2009, they have reached 750,000 children through hundreds of schools across Africa and Asia. Bridge believes every child has the right to education. So, they work in partnership with governments, communities, teachers and parents to improve or deliver high quality nurseries and primary schools in under served areas.
