Build A School is a UK charity focused on supporting the developing world in two key ways:

• To fund the building of classrooms in developing countries;
• To provide education in sustainable living.

We support governments to help developing countries reach their ambitious targets for the Millennium Development Goals. If EVERY child is to have a primary school place by 2015 it requires the continued support of friends and partners around the world.

Build A School recognises school build projects are only part of the solution. Access to knowledge about the environment, sustainable building, food security and fairer trade – 21st century issues – are yet to emerge from an education model stuck in 20th century thinking.

Build A School works hard to fund sustainable development education centres in locations accessible to both adults and children, where we can partner local communities and share knowledge and technologies.

As global citizens in the 21st century, the only smart option to build together is a sustainable future.

Never before have the consequences of ignoring this reality been so apparent or detrimental to nations achieving their Millenium Development Goal Targets.

But never have improved partnerships, communications and technologies provided so many possible solutions.

Your support can help us promote a more sustainable world through education.

It starts now.
