Today we celebrate International Literacy day! Our team is hard at work doing our part to make sure the children of Tsipasi receive the best literacy education possible. Through the rigorous curriculum available to TMP Academy, we are working everyday to help support the life long endeavor of learning.
Prior to TMP Academy opening in January 2018 there was no formal education available to the community. Unless students had the means to travel away from the community for school, education was not accessible to them. Since opening, our student population has grown to 127 students and there are even more children in the community waiting to get in once we are able to expand.
While the problem of illiteracy is massive on a global scale, we are so proud of our TMP Academy staff making an impact in Tsipasi and increasing literacy rates in the community. It is through efforts like this, one community at a time, that literacy rates will grow across the globe.
