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.
