Better Tomorrow School is a community Junior School that was established in the year 2019. The school was started with the aim of creating learning opportunities for orphans and vulnerable children in the slums. By then, it started with 7 children and 3 teachers but the number has since grown to 350 children and 10 teachers running from play group to grade 6. The number of children is expected to grow marginally in the next years hence the need for assistance from volunteers.
The school has more girls than boys because more boys drop out due to the surrounding socio-economic pressure and influence from crime and drugs. The children are from the age of 3yrs to 15yrs of age.
