📢 We're in year 2 of our @EAA_Foundation-funded Education for Every Child Today (EFECT) program and more than 48,600 children of our 96,000 goal are in school! We've built 20 new schools reaching 1,600 children who had no access to school before. More at ow.ly/Om1V50TXt2C

Earlier this month our Founder Tom Dannatt met with members of #Liberia’s new government to discuss our partnership with them, a new program that aims to enroll 50,000 street-connected children into school over the next six years. Read more at ow.ly/G7Xm50TWCnX

@Infosys When asked about their hopes, one student said: 'We dream to stay alive and see ourselves go to high school.' Thank you so much to Infosys for their support in making this possible! Learn more about Street Child's work in Ukraine and donate at ow.ly/qmYk50TTwXI

Exciting announcement! 💻🎉🎒 In #Ukraine @Infosys supported Street Child to set up 7 Digital Learning Centers so children - many internally displaced - can learn digital skills & access online content in a safe space, where teachers also offer mental health support.

This is part of our Teaching at the Right Level program (TaRL), which builds foundational skills. Students are assessed regularly & moved into new groups as they progress, so each student gets the quality education they need & deserve 🎒🌟

Building confidence is vital for children who've been out of school for a long time 📚 In #Nepal we group children by learning level intead of age so they learn at the right pace for them. This swiftly increases their learning, which boosts confidence & interest in education.

The children were also given school supplies, so their parents can use the money they were saving to grow their businesses and improve their family’s quality of life. And John can focus on his dream of becoming a soccer star! Support this work at ow.ly/knsw50TQ04m

As a result, John and his siblings had to leave school to help their parents sell goods on the streets. But thanks to Street Child’s partnership with the Saika Elisabeth Foundation, John's parents were given financial aid enabling them to re-enrol John and his sister in school.

Meet John* from Central African Republic, where conflict and a dire humanitarian situation have forced almost 1M people to flee the country and lose their livelihoods. John’s family moved to #Cameroon in the hope of starting again, but found it hard to restart their businesses.

Gooooooaaaaaaaa!⚽ A huge thanks to everyone who showed up to raise funds for Street Child at our annual soccer tournament. Special thanks to our co-host & long-standing partner @libertyglobal for ongoing support & @AccentureUK for their sponsorship & participation in the event

Street Child is committed to supporting those who have been affected by Mpox and will continue working with local partners to ensure that all children are safe, in school and learning. #DRC #Burundi #EducationMatters #Mpox

The recent outbreak of #Mpox is affecting thousands of children in the #DRC and #Burundi. The outbreak has coincided with the return to school, putting many at risk as children are more vulnerable to the disease.
