Worldwide Impact
Focus Areas
Myanmar
After 50 years of military dictatorship, Myanmar (formerly Burma) suffers from numerous internal conflicts. Their school system is extremely discriminatory and requires students to take fee-paying classes, making them inaccessible to the poorest young people.
Pakistan
In Pakistan a low percentage of the national budget goes to education, resulting in a lack of necessary facilities, materials, and teacher training programs - especially in rural areas. Many children in these areas are unable to attend school.
Thailand
Thailand's school system is in a crisis and needs to move into the 21st century because the curriculum is outdated and inadequate. Rural schools and students suffer from a lack of funding and resources. Marginalized groups have additional challenges in competing for teachers and supplies.
Student of the Month
Name: Villarias
Villarias, a determined fifth-grade student, has been a proud member of Empower Education since February 2020. He comes from a humble background, with his father working as a laborer and his mother as a housewife. Despite their monthly income of only $72 USD, Empower Education has opened the door for him, preventing a future in labor fields or leather tanneries. His teacher praises him as an obedient student who shows great respect for his teachers and is consistently punctual. With a passion for English and a love for playing badminton with friends, Villarias dreams of being a doctor, driven by a desire to help others. He thrives in a safe and supportive learning environment that nurtures his journey toward success.
