Sponsor a Child in Belarus - A More Balanced World

The literacy rate in Belarus is over 99.5 percent, with not much of a gender-based discrepancy. AMBW students in Belarus have exclusively been university students, as through high school education is compulsory and free. Higher education however, is not tuition free and while university tuition may be less expensive as compared to some other countries, it could still be unaffordable for low income families and out of reach for many.

The unemployment rate among young adults is twice as high as that of the general population. Our work enables youth from low income families to continue their education beyond high school and position themselves for better paying job by attaining post- secondary degrees.
