It's heartening to learn about the outward-looking work started by these Palo Altans. The School Fund website demonstrates the partnerships between donors and the students they help. Well worth a look.

Matt has done amazing work through The School Fund. If you want to learn more about The School Fund, I suggest you attend his fourth birthday celebration for his organization this Nov 3rd. You can let me know of your interest and I will forward you an invitation. [email protected]

I agree. It's an amazing and inspiring place in stark contrast to what we have grown up with and having lived in other parts of Europe, Africa is 'eye opening'. Well done with your venture!

The reason they can not afford school is oppressive governments, elites seeking privilege, lack of fundamental Jude's-Christian value, religious o not, failure to spot western civilization values, lack of security , lack of public order, lack of choosing leaders, lak of integrity in courts police goverment and business, lackmof capitalism and private property which motivates people and honors their work, group or tribal identity Rther than inividuals identity, and superstition,ALL play a bigger role than "poverty" which is not n economic concept but a political one, and more a correlate than the cause.
Compare e g Texas once a part of Mexico, with adjacent Mexico. Same soil same water same sun sme people to a large extent, then compare above.
