Coalition: Build a School in Africa, LDS Charities
Background: Enugu Primary school has been in operation since 1970 and is located in the rural area of Enugu. With an estimated 890 out-of-school children in the area due to poverty, illiteracy and a lack of adequate infrastructure, the project has had a large impact on the surrounding communities. For all projects built in Nigeria in 2022, LDS Charities agreed to match Coafrica’s contribution to the project 50/50. We are so grateful for this partnership which allowed us to build this school and help this community.
