250 million children worldwide lack basic reading, writing and math skills. International education nonprofit Pencils of Promise (PoP) is committed to changing that. PoP builds schools and provides educational programming in Ghana, Guatemala and Laos. RYOT traveled to Toklokpo, Ghana with PoP to step inside a classroom before and after a PoP school build, getting a firsthand look at how a quality education can change a child’s life.
