Help open new schools so more children can learn to build brighter futures
Let's open doors to great opportunities.
Penny Appeal’s Education First appeal promises a secure future for thousands of children around the world by opening new schools, improving classrooms and helping students reach their full potential.
You can ensure vulnerable children in Asia and Africa get the schooling they need and deserve through Education First.
Turkey Child Caravan Project
There are now more than 3.2 million Syrian refugees in Turkey – nearly half are children –and most are struggling to access basic services like health, education and housing.
To help Syrian refugee children integrate into Turkish society and continue their education, Penny Appeal launched a mobile teaching resource in Istanbul.
The Penny Appeal Child Caravan teaches Syrian refugee children basic literacy, numeracy and Turkish language skills and helps young Syrian refugees build social and emotional literacy, helping them relate with children of similar ages.
Support Education for Future Generations
Education is the key that unlocks the potential of the next generation of leaders, doctors, teachers and change-makers. In developing countries, every additional year of education can increase a person’s future income by an average of 10%.

What does ‘Where Most Needed’ mean?
We work with experts in the field as well as our established partners on the ground to locate countries, communities, and people that are most in need.
