Free Education

What you can expect

  • After-school tuition in core subjects
  • Scholarships for students in need
  • Free books, stationery & materials
  • Exam preparation & mentoring

We believe education is the surest path out of hardship. Our Free Education programme opens its doors to children from low-income families across Kottawa and the surrounding villages, offering after-school tuition in core subjects, language support and exam preparation — entirely without cost.

Beyond the classroom, we provide books, stationery and scholarship support to promising students who would otherwise drop out. Volunteer teachers and university mentors give their time so that every child can dream beyond their circumstances.

Rooted in the Buddhist value of generosity (dāna), the programme treats learning as a gift freely given and freely received — building confidence, curiosity and character alongside academic skill.

Help us keep this free

This programme runs entirely on donations and volunteers. Give today, or get involved as a volunteer — and help us light another heart.
