Our mission is to provide under-privileged children with an opportunity to gain the lifelong gift of education.

Rahab Ministries – Bangkok, Thailand
This is a project to help young girls caught in the prostitution trap by giving them training in traditional Thai massage, beauty and hairdressing. They are also working to combat this problem at the source through working in the northern villages. The main problem is in providing school meals. We will aim to provide 30 children with free school meals throughout the term of their schooling. The cost of this is £250 per child per year.

Nigeria
Prospect School and College – Ibadan, Nigeria
This project is led by the Soteria Trust chaired by Andy Economedies and J John. They started with a junior school which has been running for 12 years and they are now developing a vocational training college. This will give the young people much needed skills to enable them to earn a decent standard of living.
Your donations will support the development of the new vocational college and will also provide scholarships for both children to attend the school and for teenagers to attend the Prospect College.
Sponsorship for educational purposes is only £19 per month and will give a life changing experience to these young people in Nigeria.
The Rose Education Foundation aims to:
