About

What is REACH?

R.E.A.C.H. is a not-for-profit organization that strives to empower young students through education both in the United States and in East Asia by creating opportunities for leadership and learning.  By building schools in underprivileged communities across Asia through student led fundraising, and partnering with our communities, R.E.A.C.H. aims to provide opportunities of learning from rural villages to college campuses.

Working alongside CTEF (China Tomorrow Education Foundation), we are thrilled to say that we have already taken steps to bringing positive change to the world. In 2009, we brought R.E.A.C.H. DaPing Elementary School to the very deserving community of Guangxi in China. With the money raised in the 2009-2010 academic year R.E.A.C.H. has partnered with The Sunflower Mission to build a new two room elementary school in An Giang, Vietnam.

We hope that you will join and support us in this effort to globally spread empowerment through education.
