Minibus appeal
This year we started raising money to buy a school minibus for Tubarere Nursery and Primary School. Many of the children walk a long distance to school and home again each day, sometimes more than an hour each way. These pupils often arrive late to school. Some children take bicycles taxis, with 2 or 3 children on the back of the bike. This can be dangerous on the busy road and there have been a few accidents - 2 pupils were knocked down and had head injuries and another one had a broken shoulder. Another problem is that when it is raining many pupils can't get to school because the roads are bad and it is too wet. The minibus will be a safer way for the children to travel to school. In addition, school staff will be able to organise learning trips and extra curricular activities. The minibus will cost around £24,000 and so far we have raised over £4,000.

Helping Rwanda's children have a future
Aid for Education is a Scottish registered charity, established in 2010. We believe that God cares about those in need and that Jesus taught us to love our neighbour as ourselves. With your support, we can give a voice to the voiceless and hope to the hopeless.
Aid for Education currently works alongside Children Might Foundation (CMF), a Rwandan NGO based in the Eastern Province of Rwanda. CMF helps some of Rwanda's poorest children and their families; children whose families cannot afford to support them in their desire to gain access to education, basic medical care, or shelter.
Aid for Education supports CMF's income generating projects (a goat project and a women’s farming project) as well as sponsoring children, funding education for school students, providing children with school materials and helping children and their families with health care costs.
