Every sponsorship supports:
Construction: Eco-friendly school facilities built with locally sourced, sustainable materials
Innovation: Solar power, rainwater collection, biogas, gardens, and internet access.
Learning & Support: Scholarships, teachers, health services, and psychosocial care.
Sustainability: Training, monitoring, and integration into public systems.
Library & Innovation Lab
Every Green Academy includes a library, STEM and Innovation lab, giving children access to books, technology, and digital resources. This opens doors to coding, research, and global learning experiences that prepare them for the future.
Biogas Systems
Waste from the school is converted into biogas through a clean, closed-loop system. This provides safe cooking energy and powers the backup generator – reducing pollution, improving sanitation, and teaching children about renewable energy in action.
Full Annual Scholarships
Each Green Academy provides 250+ underserved children with free, high-quality education. Scholarships cover tuition and also books, meals, healthcare, psychosocial support, and skills development, ensuring every child has the tools to thrive.
Open-Air Design
Classrooms are designed with circular, open-air structures that maximize natural airflow and light. This reduces heat, lowers energy use, and creates healthier learning environments, without the need for costly air conditioning.
Rainwater Systems
Green Academies are built with rooftop rainwater collection systems. Rainwater is stored, filtered, and treated to provide safe drinking water for students, teachers, and the wider community-improving health and reducing time spent fetching water.
Gardens & Biodiversity
Outdoor gardens and biodiversity spaces make learning hands-on and holistic. Children grow food, study ecosystems, and learn sustainable
agriculture. These green spaces also support nutrition programs, providing fresh produce for students.
Satellite Internet
For many communities, Green Academies provide their very first internet connection. Through satellite technology, children gain access to digital learning, global knowledge, and virtual mentorship. It also connects teachers and families to new opportunities and resources.
Solar Power
Every Green Academy runs fully on clean solar energy. This ensures classrooms, labs, and digital tools stay powered without reliance on
unstable grids or generators. With solar, learning continues seamlessly, even at night or during power cuts.
Built with sustainably sourced bamboo, reclaimed wood, and locally sourced materials- reducing carbon emissions while providing durable, safe spaces for learning. These materials are low-cost, renewable, and naturally cooling, perfect for Africa’s climate.
