An Equal Education for ALL
|
Simply Equal Education is a nonprofit organization that works to help young people in the United States and Equatorial Guinea have access to the supplies that are needed to obtain a quality education, understand their role as active agents of social change and help them develop their relationships with their peers around the world. We accomplish this through a variety of programs including interactive presentations, student led initiatives, school supply drives and service learning exchange programs. We believe the lack of educational opportunities is a crisis on a global scale and once Simply Equal Education has been able to establish consistent support in Equatorial Guinea we will be able to expand our programming in other countries. In a global economy, if we are going to leave the world in a better place, we need to create the conditions where children have the opportunities to engage each other. It is not simply a piece of paper or a pencil, it is an opportunity for a child to write their name or color a picture and a chance for a child to see that they too can make a lasting difference in the world. Helping youth connect with and learn from each other is what we believe defines the true essence of education. We believe that this is not a grand idea, but simply, an equal education for all. |
