Lift Kids Villages teach both in the classroom and through the experience of working with each other and the village management, like a family. Each villager will be given a position of empowerment in running the village’s sustainability business and in maintaining the facilities. Additionally, by limiting villages to 40 orphans at a time, we create a more intimate environment that reaches kids at a very individual and personal level. This combination of action and individual attention will help kids learn that they are important, that they should take pride in their community, and that they are capable of impacting their worlds. It is our hope that this empowerment will live long after kids graduate from our villages, urging them to leadership.
