The Organisation
An NGO is a non-governmental organisation. Education For All is a legally constituted ASSOCIATION in Morocco that has been formed to help provide educational opportunities to girls in Morocco.
Many girls from the rural communities in Morocco do not get the opportunity of continuing their education after primary school. College is not accessible to them for a mixture of reasons.
To help address these issues Education For All is starting to build and run girls’ boarding houses near the colleges of secondary education allowing some girls from disadvantaged rural families to continue their education beyond the primary level that they have achieved in their local village. The first of these will be built at Asni 45km from Marrakech in the High Atlas Mountains.
Who is involved and how did this come about?
A group of friends many living and working in Morocco (mainly Marrakech) used to occasionally get together to have a meal. It was suggested that perhaps these occasional meetings could be formalised into a monthly dining club that would raise money for a good cause. Well, as things do, a momentum was gathered and Education For All grew out of this occasional meeting with friends.
Many people have already given their time and energy to help us get this far and raise the funds to get the first boarding house started. Everyone’s time is given freely and to date there have been no administrative costs at all as everything has been born by the various individuals involved. We are committed to getting the first boarding house at Asni built and running with zero administrative costs. So know that every £, $ or € you donate goes directly to the project.
