Sponsor a schoolchild
Thirty euros a month sends a child to school
In the village of Daban near Kumasi we are building a school together with the community. Become a monthly sponsor and you make sure a child can go to school there. Not an anonymous amount, but a real seat in the classroom that you make possible.
How it works
Sponsoring is simple and you stay in control
You choose 30 euros a month
You give a fixed amount each month. You can pay via iDEAL or direct debit, exactly as you prefer.
You see which classroom you help
You get to see which classroom in Daban comes into use through your sponsorship, and which children learn there.
You stop whenever you want
Your sponsorship ties you to nothing. You can adjust or stop the monthly gift at any moment.
What 30 euros does
What your 30 euros a month means in practice
A monthly gift of 30 euros covers a month of school for a child in Daban. Because you give it every month, a child knows for sure that the seat in the classroom stays, year after year.
A month of school
Thirty euros is exactly one month of education for a child: the seat in the classroom, the learning materials and the guidance.
A familiar place
Because it continues month by month, a child does not have to stop halfway. Schooling carries on, even after the holidays.
A view of your child
You receive updates about the classroom and the pupils you support, so you see where your gift ends up.
Why monthly
Why a monthly gift makes such a difference
A school grows year group by year group. With steady monthly sponsors we can plan ahead and let the school grow along with the children who learn there.
+Predictable
Fixed monthly gifts give the foundation a stable base. We know what is coming in and can put it to work straight away.
+The school grows with it
With recurring support we expand the school year group by year group, instead of waiting for one-off drives.
+Calm for the children
A child who can return each year truly builds something. Continuity is the difference between one year of school and a school career.
