Home Programs Our School About Take Action Contact Blog EDUCATION IS A HUMAN RIGHT WITH IMMENSE POWER TO TRANSFORM COFIA BEGINS IN A NATION WHERE 1 IN 4 YOUNG PEOPLE ARE UNABLE TO READ, in a place where many children don’t have access to education. And for those who are lucky enough to make it, going to school doesn’t always mean learning. Without quality education, children become trapped in a cycle of poverty generation after generation. WHAT WE DO In Eastern Uganda we a create an environment where learning and teaching thrive Ensuring all children the opportunity to obtain a quality education. In the United States we connect students to the larger world, empowering young leaders to take action and contribute their voices to the global conversation.
