What does Abato do?

Bricks for a school                                                           

After informing everyone in Germany that we are going to support Abato,
one of the questions that came up the most was “What is this organization doing? What’s their purpose, why support them?” 
Well I want to give all of you an example of what Abato does right now. This project impressed me very much and I am proud to show you #Bricksforaschool

Bricks for a school means that Moses and the Abato family started to raise funds by donation to build a school. And when I say build I mean they started at nothing and created a place where children can get the education they deserve.

The following is just a brief overview to show you the progress they have made, there are many more pictures and things to learn about the project…

    Deutsche Version

Let’s start with the place where the school was supposed to be built. 

This picture was taken before they started the construction.

At first Moses and his supporters had to clear the land.

The project is called bricks for a school because they even made the bricks themselves. In order to do so they pressed mud through a frame

and then later it is put on the ground and pulled leaving the brick on the ground wet.

 Many people were involved in building the school.

Together they made a lot of progress in just a few months.

With more donations coming in

they were able to start the construction of the rooftop.

They also focused on the outside looks and painted the school in a beautiful blue.

I cannot wait to be in one of these classrooms with the children.

The building grew and grew thanks to the passion and effort 

lots of people put into the project. 
Today the school is almost ready. They are giving it the finishing touch by now.

Even though they made it this far, there is still a lot that needs to be done. 

It all started with this

and they have come a long way ever since.

If you want to support them you can go to Abato website or contact us. As this project continues Abato does a lot more. Let’s help the children to learn how to help themselves because education changes everything…

Stay tuned we’ll provide you with more information and beautiful pictures of people who are trying to make a difference soon.
