Throughout northern Burkina Faso, villagers have built primary schools out of local materials (mud and thatch) in order to qualify for government teachers. The government lacks resources to replace but a very few of these schools. NEEED solicits funding for the construction of village primary schools that meet government standards. The cost of the construction of a village school (including three classrooms with tables and benches, a well and latrines) is approximately $87,000.
Donations in any amount are appreciated.
