CHILD SPONSORSHIP + EDUCATION IMPACT
Education is a luxury we tend to take for granted in the United States. Not so in Togo. Due to limited access to education and nutrition, children often will not live up to their full potential. Our co-founder, Dr. Francis Avoyi, dreams of a day when there will no longer be children living on the streets. He and his wife Benedict have been praying for, caring for, and connecting street children and orphans in their area with stable families for quite some time.
As of January 2025, we are excited to launch the House of Peace Child Sponsorship and Scholarship programs. Through our Sponsorship program, our goal is to provide funds for school fees/supplies, nutrition, and clothing for 12 of the most vulnerable children in Togo and through our scholarship program our goal is to provide school fees and supplies for the 21 school-aged children of our sewists.
Our hope and prayer is to see children reach their fullest potential through the love and support of a caring sponsor.
Gibson Girls Education Fund
Another goal of our education initiative is to help fund the tuition of a college or post-grad student. Currently we are sponsoring Grace Avoyi (Francis and Benedict’s daughter) as she has been attending pharmacy school in Senegal with the hope of returning home to serve the people of Togo. Her goal is to set up a pharmacy where the proceeds will fund pediatric care for street/vulnerable children which is a crucial need in Togo. More than 20% of these children will die with no medical assistance. She dreams of giving hope to these children and providing an opportunity for them to live and testify to the goodness of the Lord.
Grace currently has another 2 years of classes followed by a year of research. Her tuition is $5,000/semester. Your prayers and donations are so appreciated. Once this need is met our goal is to provide the necessary educational supplies for children in the village of Ephrata in Togo with a food drop we have planned there.
