Upcoming Event
Please accept this invitation to attend AOEF’s Virtual Open House TUESDAY, 1/25 at 6PM. It’s a casual gathering of AOEF leaders, youth, sponsors, supporters and friends.
Much like a fireside chat, you’ll hear from our leaders as we relay the challenges African Orphan Educational Foundation and our African partners confronted this past year. You’ll be the first to hear of our 2022 plans and the promising new developments that offer hope to millions of children and youth across the continent.
Without you, the orphans and vulnerable children we serve may never receive opportunities at a better life through education. We are grateful for your service and sacrifice and hope you can join us.
Topic: AOEF 2022 OPEN HOUSE
Time: Jan 25, 2022 06:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

- By 2030, just 1 in 4 children in sub-Saharan Africa will complete the equivalent of a high school education. [UNESCO Institute for Statistics, Global Education Monitoring Report July 10, 2019]
- Education reduces poverty – if education systems improved, absolute poverty could be reduced by 30%. [Global Partnership for Education, UNESCO GEM Report, Learning Generation Report 2016]
