Why build a school?

In 2014, we started sending kids to school through scholarships funded by sponsors in the States. As we have gained more experience working alongside these students, we have become more aware of the gaps in the traditional school system. One of gaps being education for children with learning disabilities, behavioral difficulties, or other learning differences. 

For this reason, we have the intention of opening a primary school where we can teach students who do not thrive in the traditional system. Through a holistic curriculum that focuses not only on academics, but also on skill development and Christian discipleship, we hope to offer our students a hope for a future that they wouldn't otherwise have. 

The school will exist in addition to our after school and discipleship programs. 

​

What is the plan?

In 2018 we bought a piece of land with the intention to build our school. In the following months we ran into several road blocks due to loose soil on the purchased land. Though this land is still viable for one story structures, our original blueprints and time tables had to change.

In 2020 we built our sports court and auditorium, and now, in 2025, we are starting plans to build a home for our ministry directors. We feel that having someone living on property is vital for the continued growth and development of our ministry and the presence in our community. The total cost of the house will be around $120,000. We are already halfway to our goal! 

Once the house is built, we will continue construction on classrooms for the Ahava School. Each classroom has a cost of about $15,000. 

 

We also hope to buy the adjacent property that we are currently renting.  We need $70,000 to put a down payment on this land and convert our rent payments to mortgage payments. With this land we are hoping to continue to expand our reach into the community through a clinic, psychological services, and more.
