African Education Program

African Education Program: "Radnor High School "

Radnor seniors Julie-Anne Savarit-Cosenza, Hillary Bridges and Christian Mark have created their own nonprofit organization - the African Education Program. Their goal is to support and serve schools in Zambia, where widespread poverty and AIDS have reduced the life expectancy to 33 years, according to Zambia's Central Statistical Office.

On December 12, 2004 at Radnor High School, the three students are holding an African Cultural Fair in their school's auditorium and lobby (the event is not sponsored by Radnor).

The fund-raiser will be complete with African music, dance and food, guest speakers, hair-braiding and information booths.

During spring break in March, the three students plan to directly deliver computers, books and other supplies to the schools.

They are looking for both money donations, as well as any materials that we could bring to Zambia for the children. If you are in any way interested in helping, please contact:
