Education: The Pathway to Gender Equality
As the education crisis worsened during the pandemic, women and girls have been disproportionately impacted. The need for access to education for female students of all ages is greater than ever. Learn some of the reasons why gender-equitable education matters for women and girls of all ages and how buildOn programs help. Then consider donating to help provide life-changing education for people in need around the world.
Do you believe that education can change the world?
We do! And when you make a donation you help prove it. Whether you give $5 or $500, your gift helps ensure that students have access to quality learning environments and that we can continue to build empowering partnerships with communities – partnerships that are guided by sustainability, gender equality, community ownership, and education for all.
Donate TodayOur Global Movement
In eight of the world’s economically poorest countries, buildOn empowers local residents to take the lead in bringing education and opportunity to their communities. Our sustainable approach ensures that schools are built with a community, not for a community – because the people we work with are true partners, not recipients of aid.
