As a recent graduate from the MSc in Migration Studies in Oxford, I firmly believe that BBP’s approach is the right way to empower displaced people. Funding teachers and schools reaches a bigger audience than student-focused approaches. In combination with the often-overlooked mental health component – a golden combo!
For the past three years, BBP has helped Champion School in many ways. They pay all the teachers’ salaries which allowed the teachers to provide school uniforms. BBP also provided a magnificent new classroom building and supplies that allowed the students to paint and draw in their classrooms. BBP made new toilets for the students. They built two beautiful gardens and gave camera shooting training for Grade 7 children. School desks, whiteboards, stationery, raincoats, shoes, and water bottles were also donated by BBP.
For the past three years, BBP has paid all of our school’s electricity and water bills. An A4 copier and printer were also donated along with raincoats and water bottles for the children and teachers and shoes for the children. Thank you, BBP.
