WELCOME TO OUR FOUNDATION WEBSITE
Foundation Focus On Education is engaged in development cooperation with Third world Countries. The emphasis of the projects is on education.

In many places in the world children don’t have the opportunity to visit a school and receive a good education. They will not be able to improve their living conditions and the living conditions of the community in which they live with their families.

There are many reasons for this: e.g. parents can not effort to pay the school fees; children have to contribute to the family income or they have to assist their parents with the work at home or in the fields. Sometimes the cast or the tribe to which they belong and which determines the social status can be an obstacle.
Also the natural conditions of the area in which they live such as wild animals, remote village without passable roads, mountains and wild rivers can be an obstacle.

Education however is essential. Without education children don’t have the opportunity to escape from the poverty trap. Educated children will have opportunities for a good job; children without education are condemned to heavy, dangerous and badly paid jobs.
Focus on Education Foundation with its educational projects in several countries tries to give these underprivileged children a helping hand to improve their living conditions.
