SAMI IN BRIEF
SAMI is a UK-based charity that looks to address concerns about access to and quality of mathematics education in Africa. We support initiatives, working with passionate, enthusiastic and talented individuals locally, to provide the expertise and funding necessary to implement effective and sustainable high impact solutions where they are need the most.
SAMI currently works in Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda and supports a wide variety of projects crossing education, research and global development. We are always very excited to hear from any individuals or organisations interested in working with or supporting SAMI.

We have big ideas in the pipeline for 2017 Maths Camps and for our ongoing visits to schools and improving the infrastructure of maths education.
