Please help us to help Conakry Refugee School open the door to a positive future for refugee children

 
The young people who attend Conakry Refugee School have fled from violence brought about by brutal civil war in their own countries.  Most have witnessed atrocities, many have lost parents and other family members on the way and many are severely traumatised.  For these young people CRS is a life-line, and getting a good education is their hope for a positive future.


Conakry Refugee School receives no financial help from the Guinean Government or any other external agency.  Without the funding raised by Friends of CRS the School would be forced to close.

 

By donating to FCRS you can make a huge difference to the lives of these refugee children, providing opportunities through education.
