- Education: WCA goal is to help provide primary education to children who parents are victims of natural disasters and civil crises such as wars. In many impoverished communities, children do not have access to education and other resources like books or uniforms, materials and even suitable classroom. These drawbacks are causing children fall behind without support to catch up. In most impoverished communities in many developing countries, children drop out of school to support their families and never go back. In addition, substandard schools in these communities are understaffed, failing to provide adequate education to the children. Our program, “Universal Right for Child Education” (URCE) goal is to make sure every child, mainly those in impoverished communities have the opportunity to quality primary education. Our URCE team assesses the conditions in every country we service to create specific programs to help children overcome the challenges of their community and end abject poverty for good. When you make a gift to our education programs, you provide the resources, tutoring programs, internet, computer access and more for impoverished children from kindergarten through high school.
