Help us build a double school classroom for local kids in Vanuatu by sponsoring a concrete block. 2,000 blocks at $5 each.
Papamoa Beach, Papamoa
A team of New Zealand volunteers are heading to Port Vila with Volunteer Build during June 2025 to build another two school classrooms for the V2 Life School which continues to outgrow its facilities. The 3 school classrooms we have built previously at this school sustained no damage in the recent 7.3 magnitude earthquake in Vanuatu on the 17th of December 2024.
Education officials say Vanuatu is currently short of 400 classrooms so please help us make the difference to local Vanuatu children and families by helping us to fund the 2,000 concrete blocks, cement, and steel needed to build this double classroom.
We will build another 96 square metre concrete block classroom which is large enough to split into 2 classrooms, over 6 days in June 2025 with a volunteer team of 23 people from New Zealand.
Building materials cost a total of NZ$50,000, and we hope to raise $10,000 via this Give A Little.
We use 2,000 concrete blocks, and the cost of the block, mortar, steel and block fill needed for each block is approximately NZ$5 per block. Donors can sponsor 1 block, 10 blocks, 100 blocks - or however many blocks you want.
Thanks for helping local Vanuatu children get an education by helping to fund a safe, strong, cyclone proof classroom!
The Trust was set up to provide relief of poverty, hunger and sickness by providing food, clothing & shelter to the poor. It also provides education and training to the public and schools about issues of world poverty and how to alleviate those issues.
Funds raised will be spent on building materials to build the classroom. Any money left over will be used for future Volunteer Builds in Vanuatu.
