Letter on lack of education
Answers
Answer:
I believe the lack of schooling is the worst problem Africa is facing. Lack of schooling is preventing children living in Africa from learning to read or write, leading to more problems such as job shortages.
In Africa, 72 million children are not attending school. They are too busy working at home to be able to go to school. Other reasons children are deprived of education are gender issues, religion, war and health. Different religions are driving children into different schools, so if the religion practiced in a school is different from the child’s religion, the child couldn't go to that school. Wars are destroying schools and sick children are being deprived of school.
Some children that do attend school don't receive a good education. In fact, 37 million children receive extremely poor education. Also, 40 percent of children in fifth and sixth grade don't receive nearly the proper amount of education in Africa.
I believe America could help Africa with this drastic problem. If America could raise enough money, we could build more schools for children to go to. I believe schools throughout all the 50 states in America should donate money by doing some sort of fundraiser. But not just schools could help, businesses, companies, anyone who is willing to help could raise money for Africa. With many people from America contributing, Africa might have a chance at a proper education.
I hope that you will take these suggestions to heart so we can attempt to make the future of Africa a wonderful future.
