Tertiary Education
Help young students to achieve their educational goals!
Why education?
Providing a good, high quality education to a young person is one of the most gardful continuous acts of charity (sadaqah jariyah).
Education is the only realistic and safe route for a refugee to progress out of the refugee camp and enter wider society. Without education, refugees cannot hope to secure employment or contribute to society in a meaningful way, and therefore their only routes out of the camps are the ones which are filled with danger and exploitation – empty promises made by traffickers involving travel across the desert or across the sea. We need to stop this, and provide refugees with a dignified and viable path towards a normal, meaningful and fulfilling life. Education is the only way to achieve this.
Refugees really need our help to provide access to educational opportunities. Whenever we speak to refugee communities, education is the one thing they ask for and value above anything else.
It’s in this context that we’re asking you to help the forgotten refugees of East Africa, and build a lasting legacy based on compassion and care for the next generation.
