Building Classrooms. Building Futures.

Empower deserving youth through education! These young learners in rural KwaZulu-Natal province, South Africa, urgently need schools where the lasting effects of Apartheid and the continued lack of public funds leave the kids in this area desperately underserved. It takes supporters like you to make dreams come true and build future generations. 

Your gift helps move learners into classrooms from underneath trees or from overcrowded, rudimentary structures that are stressed to hold up to 90 students in one room. Classrooms provide a safe and dependable space that allows their learning to fully flourish. Our classrooms help kids stay in school, providing a reliable education and opportunity for a successful life ahead. Education is the key to future success and their pathway out of poverty.

$13,000 builds a classroom! Contribute today to support our goal of constructing two classrooms before the Give to the Max season concludes on November 21st! 

Founded in 2006, ACC has helped 56,000+ kids by building more than 145 classrooms. There is more work to be done though – more than 150 remain on our waiting list, some for more than five years.

Africa Classroom Connection’s core principles of grassroots participation and co-investment guide the building of classrooms. 

Communities are eager for education, raising financial deposits of about 3% (significant to them), leveling land, and securing water needed for construction. 

ACC funds the rest.
