Overview

There are over 100 million children either out of school or attending poor quality schools in Sub Saharan Africa. Against a backdrop of inadequate public provision private schools for the poor are emerging as an alternative way to provide education in low income communities. The critical issue for these schools and the children that attend them is gaining access to capital to cover school improvement and school fees respectively. School Invest leverages the internet to create a sustainable culture of investment in schools for the poor. Through School Invest non traditional investors (members of the African Diaspora and non African social investors) will be able to support these schools and transform the future lives of children.
