Partnership South Africa

Partnership South AfricaThere are approximately 1200 students in the high school and primary school at Lephisi Village. In previous visits to the schools, the principals indicated a need for food for the children, training in technology, training in child development, teacher professional development, books, and a microscope. With the help of Ohio Northern University, Rotary International, and our local communities, we are making good on a promise to fulfill those needs, one child, one teacher at a time.

Partnership SA is in alignment with the mission of Ohio Northern University to develop in our students the desire to contribute to the good of humankind that is consistent with Judeo-Christian ideals. Additionally, the mission of the College of A & S is to develop a community of students and faculty committed to moral and spiritual development as well as academic development. The partnership would be a means to develop such a community.
