Adventist Education
Adventist School Planting – Initiating Adventist education in areas that already have an Adventist presence but are currently too far from any Adventist school to send their children. Actual costs will vary, but $50,000 would be a significant “seed” to plant a teacher in the area and begin offering classes.
