Schools

A Spring of Hope conducts all of its economic and social development initiatives at schools. By leveraging existing infrastructure, A Spring of Hope can reach more children and their families than if we worked exclusively in remote, rural communities. Schools are where families come together – a community center. Moreover, schools are already centers for sharing knowledge, an important activity in improving community health and economic well-being.

Our partner schools determine their own path – we do not use a “one size fits all” approach. We begin all of our partnerships with providing clean sources of water, at the school’s request. Follow-up initiatives such as sanitation, gardening, athletic, and cooking programs are designed by schools and implemented with the help of A Spring of Hope.

Since our founding in 2005 we have conducted economic and social development initiatives at 60 “partner schools”. We begin all of our partnerships with providing clean sources of water, at the school’s request. Follow-up initiatives such as gardening, athletic, and cooking programs are designed by schools and implemented with the help of A Spring of Hope. We also facilitate sanitation improvements at the schools, in partnership with Rand Water Foundation.
