THE TIME HAS COME!!

A Once-Off Opportunity to DOUBLE Your Impact

This Giving Tuesday, we are thrilled to share that a generous supporter has offered a

US$20,000 matching gift.

This means every donation will be doubled until the full match is unlocked.

Your support today will help us:

🔹 Keep the Jafuta Foundation Education & Technology Centre lights burning bright

Giving learners a safe place and equal opportunities to study and reach their potential - especially the girl child, who is often most affected.

🔹 Keep our teachers motivated and equipped

Supporting our rural students requires encouragement, training, and consistent resources.

🔹 Provide essential learning tools

Devices, books, internet access, and educational materials that many take for granted - but rural learners mostly never receive.

🔹 Sustain daily meals for children who would otherwise go without

Most rural students arrive at school on an empty stomach and eat their first and only meagre  meal in the evening.  We are currently providing over 450 primary school learners with a daily nutritious meal that helps them stay focused, healthy and able to attend school – essential in our dry months where food scarcity is prevalent.

What Your Gift Can Do Today

$30 - Feeds one student for two months and with the Giving Tuesday match, make that TWO!  

$12 - Provides a washable sanitary hygiene pack (lasting up to 5 years), ensuring one girl child can stay in school during her menstruation and not fall behind or drop out.

$450 per year - Supports one of our 462 registered rural learners for an entire year, including:

A daily nutritional meal

Supplementary and Support Education & Technology learning

Access to health, mental health counselling, and mentorship

Monthly Giving Option

$40/month fully supports one young learner for one year

$20/month supports a child for 6 months

Your contribution provides the essentials that many of us take for granted - but that mean everything to a vulnerable child dreaming of a better future.

Thank You for Believing in Rural Children

Thank you for standing with us, for believing in the potential of every rural child, and for helping us keep the light of opportunity burning bright.

Together, we can turn despair into hope - and help fulfil the dreams of a sustainable, brighter future for every child who walks through our doors.  No child’s potential should be defined by where they were born.

This Giving Tuesday, your support helps rural children overcome barriers of distance, resources, and opportunity — opening doors to the futures they deserve.

Every gift made today will be doubled.

Together, let’s unlock the full US$20,000 match.

With much gratitude
