Sparrow Project Fund
serving under-resourced schools throughout Africa
What is the Sparrow Project?
The Sparrow Project is a foundational Teacher Education Program that works alongside under-resourced "sparrow" schools in Africa. Over a two-year period, student-teachers will explore how to teach from a Biblical perspective in a culturally contextualized environment that will result in transformation in themselves, their students, and their communities.
The Sparrow Project believes that transformed teachers will transform the hearts of their students. As the hearts of the students are transformed, it provides a catalyst for community Gospel- centered transformation. Through the Sparrow Project curriculum, teachers and leaders recognize that a Biblical foundation and their own personal relationship with Christ need to inform all that they do.
