Sponsoring a new UWS school is a direct and highly-effective way of helping children in remote communities to reap the benefits of a primary education.

     

Through sponsoring the construction and resourcing of a UWS School, you will be directly transforming the lives of generations of children who might otherwise never see the inside of a classroom. 100% of your donation goes towards the building, resourcing and development of your school.

“It takes just minutes to see in the children’s faces how their lives are being transformed by having access to a school – it is inspirational.”
