"The mind is a terrible thing to waste."  Thousands of children in Africa drop out of school each year simply because their parents cannot afford to cover tuition and school-related costs.  Their minds and potential are wasted.
  
The hopeful news is that together we can help create a new start for these children.  We can mobilize a life-changing surge of love and support – by providing scholarships.  These scholarships will ensure that children stay in school for a year - covering tuition and related school expenses. 
 

Our goal for this year is to provide scholarships to 500 deserving children.  We believe that with your help we can meet and exceed this goal. 
 
Please join us in bringing hope by donating today or committing to donate $100 or more by the end of the year.
