Encouraging students to work hard at their classes and providing an environment conducive to doing so is one of Dala Development Program’s main priorities.
Multiple factors including poverty, low morale, hopelessness, and corruption in education, among other issues contribute to poor academic outcomes. In villages, more specific challenges include a low teacher to student ratio, poor home lighting for study, and a limited number of textbooks that have to be shared among students. |

In 2009 AIC Soi School started as childcare service for mothers who needed to generate some income but had no options. We started a small nursery school, and every year since they have added a class level. The village community identified the need to have a school that offers consistency, and a place where there are no surprise expenses (extra tuition, fabricated fees for Education officers). A place where the children could be guided to live and love like Christ, active members of the community.

At present AIC Soi School has more than 140 students from Kindergarten to 8th grade. We provide a school environment that brings pride to the local community and instills a solid education from proven community educators that are fully invested in our children. Our teachers are amazing; committed and hard working. They see their job as a calling and an opportunity to mold young minds and hearts in the example of Jesus. They are bringing the local community out of poverty through education. The school is located at the Africa Inland Church in the village of Soi.

These children represent the future of our community. We celebrate with our graduates, as we know they will have a positive impact in their community.
You can give hope to bright students by supporting the school through sponsorship! For only $30 a month you can cover their tuition costs, school supplies, uniforms, and basic medical care. |
