Secure the Future, a student-led organization at Central Jersey College Prep Charter School, aims to help those in need around the world. This year, the goal of these students is to partner with Embrace Relief to help build a classroom and a dormitory for sheltered orphans and other neglected children in Tanzania. Embrace Relief works with the Dogodogo Center to promote literacy and train orphans for careers that will help better themselves and build a better society. Without proper opportunities, these orphans are not given the chance to attend school. This opportunity will allow these children to learn the necessary skills to grow and find a profession that will help them and others. The center prepares students for professions such as carpentering, tailoring, electrical engineering, fire-fighting and other productive careers to support self-sufficient members of society.
Today, Tanzania ranks as the 154th country in development, and the average years of schooling are 5.8 years, approximately 3 years less than the expected years of schooling in this country. Compared to more developed countries such as the United States, which ranks as the 13th country in development, the average student receives 13.4 years of schooling, more than double the number of schooling students in Tanzania receive.
Please help these children grow into confident, independent adults by making a donation. An investment in these children’s future is an investment in Tanzania’s future.
