Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Education, Elementary & Secondary Schools, Literacy
Mission: Millions of children are shut out of school due to global crisis, poverty, and conflict. Our award-winning programs ensure the world’s most vulnerable children get a chance to experience joyful learning.
Results: To date, we have helped over 152,000 children across Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East get a second chance at education with transformational impact. External evaluation of the program shows that Luminos Fund graduates are happier, more confident, and complete primary school at nearly twice the rate of their peers.
Target demographics: vulnerable, out-of-school children access education.
Direct beneficiaries per year: 15,669 children
Geographic areas served: Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East
Programs: The Luminos catch-up education program is a proven, intensive learning program that helps out-of-school children to catch up to grade level with a focus on literacy and numeracy and supports their transition to local government schools to continue their studies - all in ten months.
