YOUR SUPPORT CAN CHANGE A LIFE

Fund an Education

It’s hard to believe that for just $30 a month you could send a student living in the bush to high school for a year.

It is equally as hard to believe that without that $30 this student will not be able to go to high school.

Give Someone a Job

Micro grants are not micro loans. In the Northern Province of Zambia, 88% of people do not have a steady income.

For as little as $30 a month you can provide a bright young entrepreneur with the tools they need to make a job for themselves.

Pay a Teacher's Salary

65% of Zambians are living in the bush without running water or electricity. In these rural areas there are tiny village schools but they lack teachers.

For just $125 a month you can pay a teacher’s salary to go into the bush and teach children English.
