Our longest standing collaboration with any school is that with Roedkilde Gymnasium in Denmark. Since 1994 SFI has made an annual appearance at the school in the form of presentations/lectures for the whole school and/or addressing the issue of poverty, street children and development in the classrooms. For the same number of years the entire school population has backed up behind our programs with significant financial support.
On a volunteer basis all students take out one day every year to do various jobs and services in the local community and the money they raise all go directly into Stairway's programs and activities.

What is remarkable about our collaboration with Roedkilde is not only the millions of pesos they have contributed over the years, but also the fact that there is such a massive support of the project amongst the students. In September 2002 about 98% of the students volunteered for the cause.

With their consistent support Roedkilde can take credit for financing most of the constructions at Stairway and the local schools around have also benefited through improved sanitation and installation of electricity.
