The global education crisis is leaving millions of children behind.
Hundreds of millions of children around the world don't go to school, and those children who are in school aren't necessarily learning. More than 200 million children who are in school struggle with literacy, mathematics, and more. A poor quality education and insufficient resources have created a global education crisis, leaving children behind.
Across the majority world, children face countless obstacles to a quality education.
TEACHERS
Just because children are in school doesn't mean they are learning. Many teachers are passionate about education, but remain untrained with little to no support for professional development or education of their own. Teaching is often undervalued, creating huge teacher shortages.
STUDENTS
Student struggle to receive a quality education for countless reasons. Long travel distances, material poverty, the threat of child marriage, political conflict, gender or disability discrimination, and so much more keep children away from school.
SCHOOLS
Many schools, especially in rural communities, are often underequipped, creating poor learning conditions. Overcrowded classrooms, no desks, a lack of clean running water or electricity make it difficult for those children who are in school to focus.
Our international partners recognize these needs. As associations of Christ-centred schools, they are passionate about helping every child recognize their God-given potential. But, they struggle with few resources and little support. They rely on their neighbours and community to help and are doing the best they can with what is available to them, but they need you to lend a hand.
In Mark 12:31, we are reminded of one of the most important callings as Christians, to “love your neighbour as yourself”. To be a neighbour is to show care, compassion, and kindness to those around us – in our local and global communities.

Give children a life-changing, Christ-centred education
$23/ month
Your monthly gift of $23 equips a teacher with access to workshops and mentorship opportunities where they'll not only learn how to deliver a quality education to their students, but one where their students can see God in every single part of their studies!
$49/ month
Your monthly gift of $49 not only equips a teacher, but also lifts up a student with practical supports. When children from vulnerable circumstances have access to bursaries to cover their school fees, the right textbooks, and tools to support their individual learning needs, they'll be able to truly focus in class and begin to flourish!
$115/ month
Your monthly gift of $115 supports holistic, Christ-centred education. Investing in teachers, supporting students, and lifting up schools through critical infrastructure projects means that children now - and in the future - will benefit from the power of an education rooted in the Gospel.
Your faithful giving reaches your neighbours around the world.
Subscribing to one of our favourite ministries
"We are a family of educators. My wife Lydia and I both teach, and we've seen the wonderful benefits that education can have on young minds. It is a great responsibility that we take seriously, and we see EduDeo doing the same alongside their international partners.
A few years ago, our family felt compelled to support EduDeo on a monthly basis. We thought, "Why not turn the one-time gift into a monthly gift to help with their long-term support of schools, students, and teachers?"
For us, moving from a single gift to monthly gift has been like subscribing to one of our favourite ministries.
The hope we have for our children through education has been realized because of the faithful support of generations who have gone before us. We can participate in that multi-generational support for schools around the world so that young minds come to know Christ and their purpose in His story." - Chris Bosch, Member of The Neighbourhood
