Lasallian Projects of Ireland & Great Britain
As Lasallians the provision of education for the poor is central to what we do as we see it as the way out of poverty. To achieve this aim we build and improve educational facilities in in communities where poverty is rampant and where the literacy rate is very low. For the last 35 years Lasallian volunteers from the District have completed hundreds of projects both big and small in Asia and Africa thus making sure that education is provided for the poor, the marginalised, the downtrodden and those with little hope.
All our efforts and resources are concentrated on small regional areas to gain the optimum impact and a lasting positive result.
By setting up sustainable infrastructure we aim to make a difference to local communities in the long term. Every one of our projects are carefully planned and monitored so that we are sure that we are having a positive impact and making a difference in the education of the children in these local communities.
Every year different groups of energetic and enthusiastic volunteers join our projects to help make that difference to communities of people in Asia and Africa for whom a little counts a lot. Their work leaves a lasting impact on the people they work with and the children who have a chance to improve their lives through improved educational facilities.
