When You Give, Classrooms Rise
We are an Australian registered not-for-profit charity, dedicated to enhancing equality and equity in education, as per United Nation Sustainable Development Goals 4 & 10.
OUR JOURNEY
Born From Compassion,
Built by Community
Schools For Future began with a simple question: what happens to children who live so far from a school that education becomes impossible?
In remote mountainous regions of Vietnam, children from the CORE ethnic group face exactly this reality. The nearest school can be hours away, across rivers, through dense forest, along paths that disappear in the rainy season. For these children, education isn't a given. It's a luxury they can't reach.
We decided to change that. Schools For Future is a team of 13 volunteers from Western Sydney: pharmacists, lawyers, IT professionals, educators, and community leaders from Vietnamese, Lao, Italian, Filipino, Egyptian, and Argentine backgrounds. We share one belief: no child should be denied an education because of where they were born.
Since 2021, we started to build schools at remote regions and insufficient funding areas for children of marginalised families, such as, in Vietnam, Cambodia and Africa.
