For example;
Join Dragon Wings
Dragon Wings is a passionate community of monthly donors who share a common belief: children deserve the best chance in life they can get.
When you become a member of Dragon Wings, you take children under your wing.
With your monthly giving children have an opportunity for a better life. You can help them go to school, stay fed and find shelter from storms so that one day they can spread their wings and fly.
OR you can be a Sponsor changes lives
As a sponsor, you are a part of a change in the life of children and communities. Over time you can see the lasting impact of your giving.
Sponsor A Student – and create future leaders.
A sponsorship of $55 a month fully pays for course fees, textbooks and stationery, and provides a basic living allowance. And after graduation, we ask students who are able to repay up to 50% of their scholarship over 4 years, interest free, to contribute to the education of other young people.
Empower Teen Girls
Provide educational support, mentoring and life skills to disadvantaged girls.
Teenage girls from impoverished families are at a disproportionately high risk of being trafficked, dropping out of school, and being pushed into early marriage. To break this cycle, your sponsorship will provide tuition, life skills classes, vocational training, career preparation workshops and psychological support to teenage girls in impoverished communities.
Change Lives Through Education
Rather than supporting a single child, your gift of $33 a month will provide uniforms, books, stationery, classes, training programs, and alternative education options for many severely disadvantaged children and teens who would otherwise be shut out from schooling.
