St Jude's ebook

St Jude's is Gemma’s own story about her life as a country girl in New South Wales, Australia. Find out how she founded The School of St Jude in Tanzania based on the belief that education should be a right, not a privilege. This book is a remarkable insight into Gemma’s life and philosophy that has positively affected thousands of lives in Tanzania.

Gemma’s idea is simple. Her school is for the very poorest kids, the ones whose families can’t afford the clothes or books or even pencils to send their children to the supposedly “free” government schools. These are the children of illiterate parents, who are trapped in a cycle of poor education, illiteracy and poverty. Gemma’s slogan is “fighting poverty through education.”
