Servant Leadership Course Brings Change that Results in Togo School

A Leader’s Self-Awareness Brings Change that Impacts 320 Students

 

“Our church had launched the creation of a private school, but then abruptly our funding ended after the first year of primary school. That was 2012.

“In my heart, I thought I should leave. I left the church and the school was closed.

“When I received the DAI course, I returned to the church. I thought, I’m a designer leader, I can lift these challenges.

“I invested what I had borrowed to build my home for the construction of the school. At the time there were 12 students and 2 teachers, whom I paid a small salary.

“Today, the school is evolving and there are 320 students. It is now through the school that we pay the pastor and other church expenses.”
