The goal of our Eagle Project is to build a school in Ethiopia and make educational materials for them. We are working with ASCEND, a humanitarian organization that helps villages to become self-reliant. Their philosophy is that the best way to change the world is to make permanent changes. For example, shipping clean bottled water to a country like Peru is great, but if it is possible to install a water well and purification system, then there will be no need to ship in water year after year. Instead, they can spend those funds on another water well in another village, and then the effects will spread.
My brother and I would like to help ASCEND build a school because education is the most valuable resource on the planet. If we can give these kids an education that they desire so badly, then they can support their village and their family much more efficiently.
