Not everyone can help out in the same way.  Please read below the several ways you can help the children of Empopongi Primary school.

What to Donate:

  For small price of a $25.00 donation, you could provide 308 children a well balanced lunch for one school day.  For for $525.00, you could feed every child a lunch for an entire month.  Whatever you give, $5.00 or $5,000.00 it will help these children receive a better education.   

How Schools can Help:

   Teachers in  different schools have partnered with us to create a fund raising event of their own to help the school.  One class may want to raise funds for food, another school may want to raise funds for a new classroom books for the library.  It's up to you. 
   This is an excellent way to get students involved in the global community, and to learn about geography, economy, social studies and community service.  Many parents support these fundraisers because their children learn gratitude for having food, water, clothes and electricity.    

How to help at Work:

   Many companies encourage employees to volunteer and donate to worthwhile charities.  Often they will double the amount you can donate or have grant programs that would help the children.  Please contact us for further information on making a donation from work.

Give a Gift Certificate:

   What better gift can you give to a loved one than a donation in their name to help children on the other side of the world?  Each gift recipient will receive a thank you letter confirming the donation made in their name.

How Churches and Synagogues can Help:

   Many people of different faiths consider helping the poor  a very important priority.  We can provide you with information, hand outs and DVDs to help you with a fundraiser for one specific project to help the school.  For example, one church raised enough funds to help stock the school library.
