A top priority at NPH

At NPH, education is one of our top priorities. You can support children with their education, from pre-school all the way to university or training in a trade such as carpentry, metalworking or cooking.

A chance to break free from poverty

We believe that education gives vulnerable children the opportunity to become independent and break free from the poverty into which they were born.

Education for children from the community

Our primary and secondary schools guarantee an education to the children who live in the centres we operate. However, we also offer schooling to children in nearby communities.

Time to catch up

Newly arrived children who do not have a certified level of education are assessed by a psychologist and assigned to the most suitable year group or may be placed in a special group until they catch up.

Much more than an education

Around 3,677 children from local communities attend classes at our schools. Additionally NPH gives them breakfast and lunch, as well as healthcare. Our goal is to ensure their complete, well-rounded development.

Nationally accredited education and training

NPH schools in Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico and Nicaragua are all accredited by the respective ministries of education to issue certificates of education or of vocational training at the end of study programmes. NPH also offers schooling in line with the internationally acknowledged Montessori programme, as well as the teaching of English, generally not available in the majority of schools.

Help a child to get an education

Providing children in our care and in the community with a high quality education is a costly business. It’s only possible with support from people like you. For just £25 a month you can sponsor a child to receive an education.
