Seeds: Planting Hope Through Education (ATOM Study Guide)

Presented by School for Life Foundation and Brightworks Productions, Seeds: Planting Hope Through Education highlights that every child who has the chance to go to school will have the chance to change the course of their lives and the future of their communities, becoming a force for societal change and economic progression in a nation.

Seeds: Planting Hope Through Education takes viewers on an emotional journey, documenting the work of Annabelle Chauncy, co-founder of School for Life Foundation and School for Life staff members, Brenda Namulinda and Janepher Nansubuga. Their determination and commitment to providing children with an education is transforming lives. Despite the challenges, they demonstrate that even in the face of adversity, real change is possible.

Through it all, they draw inspiration from the metaphor of a seed, with the belief that education is the foundation – the seed – for growth, transformation, and positive change. Prepare to be inspired and moved by Seeds: Planting Hope Through Education as it captures the essence of hope, resilience, transformation, and the boundless potential of the human spirit.
