Build a school in Laos for 2022
Due to the Covid situation, Sunshine school started shrinking as an increasing number of parents starting losing their incomes. This has made it impossible for Sunshine to cover rental costs.
You can save Sunshine and expand its impact
Many years ago, Sunshine received a generous donation of land, so now is the perfect moment for you to get involved and build a new school. Your contribution will allow the school to expand its reach from 380 students to 700, and grow from middle school to high school. You will also enable Sunshine staff to be free from the impacts of operating on rented premises. Then, they can continue to improve the quality and scope of education for Mecky and hundreds more Lao students.
