The Sisters of Mary officially started operations at Adlas in 1985. The fully-equipped school in Adlas ensures the most deprived boys who come to the Sisters receive full-time care, regular meals, medical and health support.

At school, they have access to a variety of facilities for hobbies, sports and the opportunity to play sports, including basketball and football. This gives them the chance to stay active, make friends, and allow them to experience a normal childhood.

The boys’ full-time studies cover a range of subjects with an emphasis on science and math. They also have access to mechanical and automotive workshops, and a variety of other workshops to learn vocational skills which help them secure jobs locally after graduating. Their technical studies include computer system design and maintenance, electric car maintenance, tailoring, bread and pastry making and other skills which will equip them for future jobs with a variety of employers. Graduates have gone to work for large companies including Toyota, Honda and Stahl.

All of this is only possible through the generosity of people like you. Every child deserves a good start in life and with your help we can continue to make this a reality.
