Mongolian Literacy

News imageIn co-operation with local government, AsiaLink partners have established literacy classes in needy areas throughout Mongolia. New classes begin every year. Costs are shared with the local government which provides buildings, covers maintenance costs and provides some of the teachers. These are critical tools in opening up communities where there is no current Christian witness.

As part of that overall budget, an amount of £2500 per month for twelve months is required to help provide basic uniforms and shoes, stationery and meals for the children to attend schools. It is with this particular aspect of the program that we are interested in helping. This amount meets the need of the 500 pupils at a cost of just under £5 per child per year. More…

Suggested amount: £30 helps equip 6 children for one year’s schooling
