About Us
Education is not only a human right, but it is also an essential tool for individuals to break the poverty cycle and to building the human capital of nations. The Jerome Fleischer School for orphans is in the forefront in fighting the cycle of poverty through education and Biblical values by touching and changing one life at a time.
Located in the heart of the community where our services are needed most, Our school is a place where orphans find hope, transformation, growth, food, school, love, and Biblical education.
