moladi supports 1GOAL: Education for All campaign: "moladi supports 1GOAL: Education for All campaign"

Moladi is supporting the new 1GOAL: Education for All campaign, aimed at making the right to receive an education a reality for every child.
The global campaign is calling on world leaders to provide education for 72 million children worldwide by 2015.
1GOAL is seizing the power of football to ensure that education for all is a lasting impact of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, the first in Africa.
Footballers, fans and FIFA are behind 1GOAL, along with education champions, charities and campaigners. Moladi is supporting the campaign through its partnership with the Global Campaign for Education – with development agencies around the world united in their determination to achieve universal education.
Poverty reduction
Of the eight Millennium Development Goals agreed by world leaders in 2000, two involve ending poverty through education, including ensuring that all children complete primary schooling by 2015.
While some progress has been made in this area – an extra 33 million children are now going to school, thanks to initiatives such as the abolition of school fees in many countries – the goal will not be reached without increased action now.

"Not only does it open up economic opportunity and contribute to poverty reduction, it literally does save lives. Children of mothers who receive an education are twice as likely to live beyond age five."
