The Luminos Fund
Today there are over 250 million children around the world who do not know how to read or write. When children miss out on acquiring basic numeracy and literacy skills they face a much greater risk of a lifetime of poverty and poor health.
The Luminos Fund operates an accelerated learning programme that helps children who have been excluded from school due to poverty, conflict or discrimination to transition back into mainstream education.
While the children go to school, their mothers are helped to grow businesses that will hopefully lift the whole family out of poverty.
