The Akon School for Girls
In solidarity with women leaders in southern Sudan, My Sister's Keeper has supported the development of a girl's school in the village of Akon that was established in 2003. We are committed to supporting multi-phased improvements for the school from teacher training, and a feeding program for the students, through to construction of a building.
Working closely with a community advisory council, My Sister's Keeper completed a community assessment in December of 2005. This community assessment revealed great need and rich possibility. Today, the school operates with few resources: the school occupies a stretch of land located across the road from the Akon Women's Center; The teachers have no more than an 8th grade education, and volunteer their time completely; Many children walk for hours to get to school, often on empty stomachs; Classes are held under trees.
To date, with the help of many friends and supporters, My Sister's Keeper has helped supply the girls with textbooks, notebooks, pencils, and school uniforms, and has provided basic necessities for teachers. Yet, as the number of students swells to more than 400, the demands of the school have quickly outpaced available supplies.
Together with parents, children and community leaders, the women of My Sister's Keeper have crafted a vision for a school that will educate the next generation of southern Sudanese leaders and peacemakers. It includes a school building, highly trained female teachers, and a curriculum designed to meet the special needs of girls and women from this war-torn region, where 90% of women are illiterate and only 20% of schoolchildren are girls.
The school's founder and local champion, Achol Cyer Rehan, is the first female Commissioner in the history of southern Sudan. A powerful force for peace during the 21-year civil war, and dear friend of My Sister's Keeper since 2001, Achol has publicly thrown her full support behind girl's education and the Akon School for Girls.
