A young student showing off her progress with the alphabet at X-SUBA's Learning Center. English is taught once a week to students whose parents can't afford to send them to school. Math and Critical Thinking are taught on two other days of the week. The children are only allowed to stay at the Learning Center for one year so as to not overwhelm the volunteers. They use this time to teach the parents about budgeting and look for sponsors to send the kids to primary school.

X-SUBA Learning Center students on a break to play on a swing built by a German donor. Even a child's swingset isn't safe from theft - staff had to take prevention measures because people were stealing metal parts to sell.
