About this Event

Can education break the cycle of poverty?

Gemma Sisia, the founder of the School of St Jude, will share the incredible story of how the school has grown from its humble beginning in 2002 with just three students and one volunteer teacher, to its current role providing free education to more than 1,800 students and preparing the next generation of leaders in Tanzania.

This event is free and open to the public.
