In 2023, Karma builT an additional three new classrooms and funded two more.

Getting to school is a great start but education requires trained teachers and classrooms.

There are currently 780 children attending four schools and taught by ten teachers supported by Karma Drinks in Sierra Leone. The new classrooms were built before the rains came.

Why is this a big deal? It’s impossible to build in the torrential rainy season, and it’s a long way for primary school-aged children to walk the 12 kilometres to the closest school, especially when it’s raining.

Now, they can go to school closer to home, stay drier on the shorter walk, and concentrate on learning.
