Engage Globally Scholarship Fund
Please join us the evening of June 20th at Right Proper Brewing to support the education mission of Engage Globally. We are raising scholarship funds for youth in Northern Ghana, with the objective of sponsoring the education of at least 6 children in 2018 - '19.
Right Proper Brewing has generously offered us space at their Shaw location (7th Street NW) for a night of trivia fundraising, hosted by our very own Josh Bergstein! Suggested entry fee of $10 - 20 per player. All donations are tax deductible and will directly sponsor youth education.
About Engage Globally:
Engage Globally, a DC based 501(c)(3) organization, supports community-led sustainable development by collaborating with local leaders in Northern Ghana on issues that community members have identified as priorities. Engage Partners with six villages that would be described by the World Bank as being below the global poverty line of $1.90 PCI per day. Though three have access to some electricity, none have clean water or sanitation and public school and health care access are very minimal. A primary priority of the communities is education with the following programs:
· Early childhood education - ages 3 to 8 - in two community built and managed early childhood schools
· Scholarships for youth to attend private elementary schools
· Scholarships for youth to attend junior and senior high schools
· Vocational training scholarships for youth who have not attended school but would like to learn a trade skill

· School fees (including exam fees)
· School books and supplies
· Uniforms and a pair of used shoes
