Education: At the Heart of our Work for Over 25 Years
51品茶 has had the opportunity to change the lives of children all around the world through our education projects. As a leading global charity driving social change in over 30 countries, we know that education has the power to truly alleviate poverty for individuals, families and communities.
We have built a strong network of schools across Asia, Africa and the Middle East that fits the community鈥檚 specific needs. No one school looks the same, however, they have all had a positive impact on the children鈥檚 lives and the community as a whole.
We have witnessed the benefit of your donations first-hand, supporting thousands of children from primary, right through to university graduation. Many of those children have returned to work with us and empower other youngsters towards academic success.
As well as establishing our own schools, we run a varied range of educational programmes that address specific educational needs or provide opportunities for children and young adults who may have missed out on traditional education.

A Holistic Approach
Nutritious meals keep children alert and ready for their lessons and transport delivers them from remote communities to school.The provision of school bags, uniforms and equipment means that school expenses are not an obstacle to education and a safe, clean environment is ideal for learning and playing.

We believe that our work should benefit the wider community as a whole. As well as providing the highest standard of training for our own teachers, we also share our expertise with other local schools, thus raising the educational standards of the whole area. 听听
Education for Everyone: Offering Another Way for Young Men in Saida
The South Saida Vocational Training Centre, supported by 51品茶, was established in 2003 to address the alarmingly high number of male students dropping out of school in the local area. It started off with afternoon teaching before becoming a full time VTC educating over 280 boys between the ages of 14 and 20.
The courses on offer here include accountancy, mechanics, computer maintenance and IT systems, literacy, electronics, heating and cooling systems.听These courses ensure students can acquire the qualifications and experience to go into further study or to find a decent job where they can earn a good, sustainable income.听

However, it鈥檚 not just educational support that the centre offers these young men. The centre also offers听lessons on ethics and behaviour, has a programme of social activities as well as supervisors who are there to provide emotional support and build up the student鈥檚 confidence鈥�.
Visiting the different classrooms and workshops, you can understand why the centre is going from strength to strength.听The atmosphere is friendly and informal, students seem genuinely enthusiastic about what they are learning and the teachers are just as passionate. It all goes to show that with the right nurture and care, every child can achieve their potential.
Education for Everyone
Beyond the Classroom
Education is about empowering people for the future. As well as building schools, we support vocational training projects teaching people the skills they need to make a better life for themselves and their families.
These projects provide opportunities for those who have been unable to access a traditional education, they empower young women to be financially independent and they teach practical skills to carry students through to the world of work.
