The Organization has a total of sixteen staff members including subordinate staff members,
three cooks and ten volunteer teachers who are truly good Samaritans.
Our staff members provide all their services with token remuneration,
purely out of good will and charity. All of our teachers are young men
and women who, although they have no gainful income, in good faith they
are preoccupied with charity work.
The shared vision that drives all of us is the desire to provide quality education to and learning opportunities for children who cannot otherwise afford the cost of accessing or receiving the same elsewhere. A.V.E.C has not yet fully accomplished this purpose, but the goal is to evolve and improve. A.V.E.C will eventually become a complete learning institution with primary, secondary and vocational/ tertiary college. A considerable amount of fund-raising will be necessary to achieve this goal, however.
