Classroom of Hope

Mission Statement

We envision a clean world where every child thrives in safe, uplifting schools. Classroom of Hope builds schools using recycled materials in developing nations because everyone deserves access to quality education and a cleaner planet. In 2018, Lombok’s devastating earthquakes left over 500 dead and destroyed more than 400 schools, leaving many children without safe learning spaces. Classroom of Hope is committed to rebuilding these schools with earthquake-resistant classrooms made from recycled plastic blocks. Each classroom removes 1.8 tons of plastic waste, supporting both sustainability and educational needs. Alongside our sustainable block schools, we offer holistic, community-enriching education programs that uplift learning and extracurricular opportunities for students. These programs are designed for long-term impact training local teachers, engaging parents, and strengthening resources to ensure they thrive. By working closely with the government, we support the eventual handover of program delivery, helping communities sustain their own growth. With local leadership and impact tracking, we’re building a lasting foundation for change, one that empowers children and communities for generations to come.
