Band Aid award for South Sudan
Posted on Saturday, September 24, 2005 @ 11:30:41 UTC by admin
The Band Aid Trust has awarded £420,050 to Save the Children’s Education Programme in south Sudan to help increase children’s access to good quality education.

Fran Healey, lead singer of Travis and part of Band Aid 20 recently visited Sudan with Save the Children. On hearing the news he said "It’s fantastic that money from Band Aid can be given to such a worthwhile cause. Having visited Sudan I have seen first hand how much this money is needed and how much it will benefit the children of south Sudan."

Currently less than 20% of southern Sudanese children and less than 1% of southern Sudanese girls complete their primary education. With this grant Save the Children will provide the infrastructure and training, which will improve these statistics. Better training will ensure improved quality of education along with an improved understanding of the importance of education and the role schools play in protecting children.

The education programme will start on the 1st Oct 2005
