We are a Christian charity providing a future, through education, for some of the poorest children in the world. Where we work there is a great deal of suffering including AIDS, malaria, typhoid, cholera and malnutrition. Many children go to bed hungry at night. The families we work with have no running water or electricity. For the children we support education is their only route out of poverty and despair. Their needs are simply overwhelming.

EVC funds their education and also builds classrooms, nurseries, dormitories, water bore holes for clean water and school materials. All funds raised for these purposes goes directly there, nothing is taken out for admin which is funded elsewhere. Volunteers manage the Charity in the UK and running costs are low.
