Echoes Foundation

ECHOES works directly with local communities, focusing on health, education, and welfare. We seek to support innovative, dynamic, and accountable leadership in marginalized areas of the world.

 

1) To create educational opportunities for children, challenged by poverty and the AIDS pandemic, through the establishment of safe, well-equipped and professionally staffed schools.

 

2) To provide consistent, nutritious and medically sound feeding programs for children whose health has been compromised by poverty, malnutrition and Third World conditions.

 

3) To ensure teacher competency by offering teachers additional training, especially in the area of special education.

 

4) To establish a scholarship program for AIDS-orphaned students and for teachers seeking professional development. Initially, ECHOES will provide stability for the programs at the Trinity and Centenary schools and other facilities that support them. The ultimate goal for each facility is self-sufficiency.

 

5) Improving health of children by providing preventive care and health education through the support of regional medical care facilities.

 

Using the Trinity and Centenary schools as models for success, ECHOES will expand their future support to establish other viable and effective educational communities… one child at a time, one community at a time.
