“The idea of getting an education should never invoke a sense of hopelessness and or impossibility in any child, getting an education should never be a dream an,“I wonder what it would be like”,NO, instead it should be a certainty. This is what we are fighting for, to make it a certainty one child at a time.”

"The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), otherwise known as the Global Goals, are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity.
These 17 Goals build on the successes of the Millennium Development Goals, while including new areas such as climate change, economic inequality, innovation, sustainable consumption, peace and justice, among other priorities. The goals are interconnected – often the key to success on one will involve tackling issues more commonly associated with another." - UN Development Program
