*How will your donation affect someone's life?

$50 = 10 women trained
Classes are taught by Kenyan experts in basic health, HIV/AIDS awareness and women's rights under Kenyan law.

$60 = 2 goats for woman's microcredit

$50 = 1 child educated
Purchase a mandatory school uniform, supplies and fees for a primary school child. When girls are in school they are less likely to be forced into child marriages. Uniforms are sewn by local seamstresses which stimulates the local economy.

$100 = 50 children protected
Purchase 20 treated mosquito nets to protect more than 50 children from deadly, malaria-carrying mosquitoes. The nets are manufactured in Africa which stimulates developing countries' economies.

$300 = sanitation for 30 students
Purchase building materials for one latrine stall at a rural school. Your donation covers 80% of the cost of materials, the community provides the remaining 20% and parents provide the unskilled labor. Thus all are owners of the project.

$600 = clean water for 600 students
Purchase building materials for one school water well or cover one third the cost of a school water-catchment system. Your donation covers 80% of the cost of materials, the community provides the remaining 20% and parents provide the unskilled labor. Collaboration!
