Project Description
We support the Ideas Partnership Learning Centre, which serves 370 Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian learners from ages 3 through from neighborhoods in Fushe and Kosove, which is about 20 minutes from Prishtina. Most of the families here earn their living from scavenging from the garbage, and from begging. Only 4% of this community complete compulsory education and illiteracy is high. The project offers kindergarten education, weekend academic support for kids in school, mediation to get kids into school, health support and antenatal care and clothes distribution.
