Melody School was born from one family's heart with a mindset of “if you can dream it, you can do it. The story came to life as a one room schoolhouse built by the family with five students under it's roof. Now it is a bustling 9 room school filled with 95 children who have dreams about lives that they could never have imagined. They will be teachers, lawyers and leaders of change. The growth is a testament to the school's unyielding dedication to academics, child sponsorships, donations and a growing group of passionate volunteers.

With many families living on $ 1.00 a day, thoughts are about survival, not education. Without the support of like-minded people who believe every child deserves an education, these children would never learn to read or write. The students at Melody school know how to read by the time they are 6 years old. The impact ripples through the whole family, changing their lives in one generation. Under the tutelage of this small but dedicated team of educators, they too can dream about changing the world.
