Planting Seeds
For A
Brighter Future
Students around the world are running out of options for their futures.
Many high schools give students limited choices for what to do after graduation, and students are often left without the opportunity to discover and develop their gifts.
If students aren't academically gifted or they can’t afford tuition, university is painfully out of reach. If their school doesn't teach the trades, they miss out on entering an entire sector of the workforce. Students are advancing in high school without an answer to the question, “what’s next?”
This means many students are dropping out before high school graduation because they see little reason to continue. They don’t see a meaningful place in society for themselves or their gifts, and they’re out of options.
EduDeo’s partners are planting the seeds for a different future & we need you to help make this a reality.
All children bear Christ’s image and bear the unique gifts He has given them. Each one of them deserves an opportunity to cultivate their gifts, support their families, and build up their communities.
Give a gift today to support skills training programs at eight schools in Burkina Faso and Zambia. Programs will not only train students, but they’ll equip them for meaningful, lifelong careers as Christ’s ambassadors in their communities.
Your gift will have three key impacts
Students
Trained
Schools
Supported
Communities
Built
Skills training programs equip students for careers with meaningful work – in a field that they’re both skilled in and excited about. The schools where they’re trained can also generate income, keeping them sustainable and able to train more students. And when students and schools continually fill the workforce with honourable, Christ-like workers, communities are built up for generations to come.
That’s a long-term investment with year-over-year returns. Will you kickstart the impact and give a gift towards skills training programs?
Give Now
Your investment is seed money. Literally.
Your gift will ensure schools’ skills training programs can purchase materials like seeds, saplings, young animals, feed, and everything necessary to help farming thrive. Programs happen on-campus and teach students how to raise and grow, care for, and sell the products of their agriculture and animal husbandry efforts.
Consider selecting an animal, sapling, or a combination of the two to help expand skills training programs.
Where and how your impact will grow

Project Goal:
$27,000
One school in East Burkina Faso and two in the West are looking to expand their existing agriculture farming programs. Programs teach students valuable farming skills and instill an attitude of caring for creation in their communities. Students will learn to plant, care for, harvest, and sell the crops of the farms. The programs also provide income generation for schools and provide local communities with much-needed quality food sources.
Zambia
Partner
Church of Central Africa Presbyterian (CCAP)

Location
Lundazi-area, Zambia
Project Goal:
$23,000
Five schools in Lundazi-area, Zambia are looking to start or expand skills training programs in fish, pig, and poultry farming. For schools that don’t charge tuition or are looking for long-term sustainability, programs will help generate much-needed income. For students, programs will help them develop their God-given skills in raising, caring for, and selling animals. And for communities, they will have a consistent supply of quality food.
Watch your impact grow
Every gift ensures three critical impacts: students are trained for meaningful careers with their God-given talents; schools have consistent income-generation; and communities have both reliable food sources and quality tradespeople entering the workforce.
OUR GOAL: $50,000
