Become a monthly donor today

Signing up for recurring donations through your PayPal account is the easiest and most consistent way of supporting our students.
As little as $5 a month goes a long way for our sponsorships and for the cost of a coffee you'll help us cover the cost of sports uniforms for one of our students; and if you want to go all out, for $100 a month, you'll cover the full cost of one sponsorship!
​Whether it's $5 or $100, recurring monthly donations are a great way to help support the education of our kids.
