SPREADING SCIENCE THROUGH TEACHING TEACHERS
We are making great progress but there is lots of work still to be done ~ your support is VITAL!
Student fees for the SEED Institute are minimal by our standards
but unaffordable to most families in this rural district of subsistence farmers.
The FUTURE TEACHERS FUND provides loans to students who are pursuing a qualification in Science Education:
Diploma in Science Education: trains students to teach science up to
‘O’ level (US equivalent of 10th. grade)
Cost: $600 per annum for 2 years
Degree in Science Education: trains students to teach science up to
‘A’ level (US equivalent of 12th. grade)
Cost: $1,100 per annum for 3 years
Once graduates are employed in local schools, loan re-payments will
be deducted from their salaries and channeled back into the Future Teacher Fund, to be used by the next student in need of assistance.
This is a re-cycling, sustainable fund!

There are still some costs associated with preparing the facility for the enrollment of students in 2015 - plumbing for lab sinks, work benches, white boards, overhead projectors, etc…
b) SCIENTIFIC EQUIPMENT & MATERIALS
We are receiving generous donations of equipment from science-based companies in the US, however there are costs associated with transportation and installation. Supplies of reagents and other renewables will also need to be purchased.
