Education in Ethiopia

 

With clean water available locally, the people of Lera have identified education as the next priority. Lera Town Fund will continue to transform lives by providing classrooms and educational materials for the children and families. 

Lack of schools and poor facilities have led to low enrolment - especially of girls. There are currently several hundred children hoping to complete secondary education at a school with only two classroom blocks.

Our aim is to expand Kilto high school to provide access to secondary education for 90% of  children in the area - including a 90% enrolment for girls.
