Happy, Graduating Students

Published October 9, 2021

These students graduated from high school just a few days ago; they are overjoyed to have received 15 years of free education and have adorned themselves with hairbands/“buffs” from Båsum Borring, Krøderen.

These students wouldn’t be where they are today without the generous support of Norwegian sponsors. That’s why it’s important for them to express their immense gratitude to you, their sponsors, back home in Norway ♥

"You have to bend it while it's young..."
The old saying, “You have to bend it early to make a good hook,” doesn’t quite apply to what’s happening in our schools in The Gambia, but we’re seeing a welcome development. Before, we had to come from Norway and take care of almost everything, or hire professionals in The Gambia to provide services. We no longer need to do that.
