Projects

 

Based on the development, government and school visits, Paper for All would like to expand its reach and impact through four potential projects, two of which add a stream to the existing activities (project 1 and 2) and two of which develop its current capabilities (projects 3 and 4):

1) The building of a training center, to conduct professional training for students who drop out, most often because they cannot afford the academic fees.  These could include mechanical, electrical, English and French languages as well as entrepreneurship trainings.  They aim at improving the level of education of the people who get out of the ecucational system and help Burkina Faso in its development by providing better trained individuals.  This project is according to the Education Minister fully aligned with the Government priorities.  This project would cost FCFA 8 Million ($18,000) if the organization needs to buy land to build the training center, and FCFA 2M ($4,500) if Paper for All is granted land by the mayor of Ouagadougou and government of Burkina Faso.  

2) The creation of scholarships to reward the best students of each school for FCFA 200,000 ($400)

3) An increase in scope to 10 schools, which would increase the annual budget to FCFA 13.5 Million per year ($30,000).

4) The hiring of full time fundraisers to expand the budget and capabilities for FCFA 25 Million ($56,000, including company employee tax).

For each of these project, Paper for All hopes to be able to gather sufficient support and financial support from the government, organizations and foundations to further and strengthen its impact, so that the children in Burkina Faso can benefit from better educational conditions.
