🎒 School Sponsorship Opportunities
Education is the path to a better life—but many of our children cannot attend school without help.
Currently, 12 children lack school sponsors. Without sponsorship, they face missing out on education entirely.
School Sponsorship Costs:
-
💰 Fees: €50 (Nursery) to €110 (6th Class) per term
-
🎽 Uniform: €22 per child
-
🍛 Lunch: €7–€25 per term
-
👟 School shoes: 709,500 TSH for 24 pairs
(Approx. 452 USD / 333 EUR / 279 GBP)
Sponsorship is not only about finances—we welcome mentors who will build a relationship with a child and follow their educational journey.
