The mission

What this organization describes

Providing a Christ-centered approach to the global education crisis.

The mission of Edify is to bring Jesus Christ to children through a better academic education. Hundreds of thousands of low-fee, independent schools have been started by local entrepreneurs. We come alongside these entrepreneurs to help improve and expand their schools. Edify places a strong focus on training school leaders and teachers to provide a biblically-based, high-quality education and develop Christ-like character in students. We also provide training for school leaders to teach and equip them with necessary skills that will help them manage efficient and sustainable schools.
