Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
- Nelson Mandela
Hundreds of children are being forced into early childhood labor because they cannot afford to attend school. Families are suffering and communities are plummeting into poverty. Cornerstone Foundation is working hard to change these statistics, one donation at a time.
In conjunction with the Peace & Hope Initiative in Kigali, Rwanda, Cornerstone is committing to this ongoing battle by spreading the word, identifying volunteers and raising money to make real change. Every volunteer and donor gets to decide where they would like their money and time spent. Funding can contribute to building additional classrooms, extending or creating new powder rooms with menstrual products as a means of ending period poverty, and/or to sponsoring a child, ages 3-13, so they can receive an education.Please see below for additional details on costs, and ways to donate.
