Education
Angel Network grants have supported educational equity, excellence and innovation for people from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds in the United States and around the world.
Here are some examples of what we’ve done:
- Helped build 60 schools in 13 countries, providing education for thousands of children in rural areas
- Built the Seven Fountains Primary School in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, which serves more than 1,000 boys and girls, and is a model for teaching and learning throughout Africa
- Put books in the hands of tens of thousands of children around the world
