EDUCATION FOUNDATION
Dave and Caz
When our team established the Education Foundation ten years ago , Adam was one of the first employees . A widower with three young boys and minimal education , he was struggling to make ends meet and provide for his family . He lived in a small dwelling with his sons and extended family members .
Flash forward to today , and Adam has blossomed and grown in confidence as a loved staff member . He has been able to care for his boys and make sure they attend good schools . He has also been saving regularly and was recently able to buy a small house for himself and his sons .
He is so happy and grateful that he could do this .
Adam eagerly participates in the weekly devotion times we run with the local staff , and we know the Lord continues to work in his life .
This is just one story of many . Over the past ten years , we have witnessed God at work through us and in the lives of the local staff and students .
There are now Education Foundation branches in three provinces and partnerships in other provinces . Employing around 45 local staff , the foundation provides courses for expatriates and local people .
