About Bridge International
Bridge International
Academies was conceived in 2007 out of the belief that giving every child
access to a high quality education would have the greatest impact on reducing
poverty worldwide.
Operating a network of
schools supported by a strong central headquarters gives Bridge International
the scale, experience, and capacity to invest in systems of management,
support, training, and innovation that allows individual schools to
dramatically increase their effectiveness.
Using this model, Bridge
International is able to profitably deliver high-quality education for $5 per
child per month.
This ensures that its
academies will continue to successfully serve its communities as long as
parents value the educational service provided.
The first Bridge
International Academy launched successfully in Kenya in 2009 and over 70
academies are operating in Kenya today.
Through rapid and
strategic expansion, Bridge International will provide a quality education to
over a million students in the coming years.
