Each of the
students pictured here with Mama Sue needs a sponsor.
Of our 93 scholarship
students, we have 55 without sponsors.
Not just to help support their education
financially but also to become a friend who will, through emails, letters and
postcards, open another window on their world and to encourage them in their
studies.
It costs
just £20 a month to sponsor a scholarship student and to light up a life.
£20 provides all a youngster needs - schooling,
uniform, books, PE kit plus nourishing breakfast, lunch and snacks.
We do now ask parents to buy shoes as Mama believes
they should be encouraged to make a commitment in this way.
Young people also receive deodorants, toothpaste and
toothbrushes, sanitary pads for the older girls and shoe polish and a brush.
To cut the risk of fires and ill health from
kerosene lamps, we give them solar lanterns so they can read at home, in
safety, when darkness falls.
Our scholarship scheme is for children
whose need is proven and who show a commitment to learn.
We need your support NOW
Please tell your friends about us, encourage
them to sponsor; hold a fundraising event or make a one-off donation.
Together we ARE changing lives and together we will
change many more
