TEACHER TRAINING
Teachers are at the heart of education, so we always invest in them. Together, we provide workshops and mentoring for CRECH teachers & leaders in areas such as restorative practices, curriculum development, incorporating the Gospel into specific subjects, Christ-like leadership, and more.
CONSTRUCTION
We partner to create vibrant, thriving spaces for CRECH educators & students. Projects like building and expanding libraries, offices, and training centres ensure communities have reliable education spaces to grow and learn together.
STUDENT SUPPORT
Christ-centred education at CRECH schools should be accessible for all children and families, no matter their situation. Supports like tuition bursaries, education manuals, and Bibles in the classroom provide students with a holistic yet always accessible education.
"My dream for my country is to see it with leaders that are capable of looking out for the needs of their people before their own interests. If we had leaders who would see others before themselves, so many of our problems would be solved. That’s why we educate children with that mentality. That’s my dream for my country."
– Louisenette, leader, Haiti
I had the privilege to participate in EduDeo’s training on Restorative Practices. This training has been a blessing for my life. It has allowed me to look at others not through glasses of judgement and blame, but through glasses of grace, compassion, and forgiveness.
