African Education Program

Since 2007, the African Education Program (AEP) has awarded over 2,600 individual annual scholarships, enabling 450 young women and men to complete high school and 80 to graduate from college. Scholarships enable girls and boys to continue their education in schools and, most importantly, create a base for the programs provided at AEP’s pilot educational resource center in Kafue, Zambia. On a daily basis, over 400 children and youth take advantage of programs focused on quality education through academic tutoring, leadership development and volunteerism, HIV/AIDS and health awareness, nutrition and food security, the arts and creativity, and gender equity. AEP’s model is based on creating opportunities so that these children and youth can build their resiliency and overcome any challenges that may prevent them from reaching their full potential. This creates an environment for these youth to break out of their impoverished situation and become the leaders that their communities need to systemically end poverty.

MAIA

MAIA unlocks and maximizes the potential of young women to lead transformational change. We believe the world needs empowered women with the knowledge and resources to live choice-filled lives, so they can in turn lead their families and communities out of poverty and provide sustainable local solutions to global challenges.

 The MAIA Impact School is the first female indigenous-led secondary school in Central America that offers a holistic education focused equally on academics, culture and identity, socioemotional development, and family engagement. We call our students “Girl Pioneers” because they are blazing a new trajectory towards prosperity and equal opportunity. We currently have 239 Girl Pioneers enrolled in grades 7-11, and each year we welcome a new class of about 50 future leaders to the school.
