Ways You Can Help PATW Help the Poor in Ivory Coast
For over ten years Partners Around The World's projects have
concentrated on helping the children, orphans, at-risk teenage boys,
and women living in the poorest areas of Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
Over 60% of the people of Ivory Coast live beneath the poverty level, and
60% of the population is under 17 years of age.
PATW teachers are working to change these statistics
by providing an education to the poor.
Currently, there are 600 underprivileged children happily
attending Partners Around The World's Christian schools'
kindergarten to sixth grade classes.
There are 45 students in PATW's three-year sewing program.

PATW provides soccer coaches for about 100 at-risk teenage boys who spend
their extra time playing soccer instead of living on the streets. Last year the PATW
team was the best in their area.
PATW schools are approved by the government.
PATW has set the goal to expand educational opportunities in other villages.
Please consider contributing to PATW so that we can:
Build more classrooms in other poor areas
Establish much-needed computer labs
Enlarge the current sewing center
Start a sewing center in another area
Purchase more soccer equipment and pay teams' transport
