What F.A.C.E. Free African Children thru Education does
Ongoing programs
FACE (Free African Children thru Education) provides financial support for the education of underprivileged children living with relatives in Africa allowing them to attend Primary and Secondary Seventh-day Adventist Schools. Financial support includes funds to cover tuition fees books and other scholastic materials uniforms sports equipment lunches as well as bank fees and administrative costs incurred by the schools in sending application forms enrollment lists photos and reports on the use of funds back to FACE. FACE believes that a proper learning environment is also important to the education of a child. In addition to student financial support FACE works in partnership with local NGOs or schools to provide funding for the construction of much needed new classroom buildings and the upgrade and maintenance of existing school buildings by providing blackboards benches desks painting and repairs as required. FACE provides funding to Mamawi Atosketan Native School in Alberta for their elementary and high school art program.
