Cost of Sponsorships
    School fees are paid annually in January in Zimbabwe. We will be seeking the educational sponsorship donations in October/November each year. We plan to send a picture of each child to the sponsor, as well as ask the children to write and tell us about themselves. For us to help send a child of any age to school, it costs $35 per year.

    In recent interviews with village residents, we found that 75% of the children need financial assistance to pay school fees. Uniforms are a compulsory part of the school system in Zimbabwe, although they are often overlooked for the poorer child. $5 of our sponsorship fee goes to buying the fabric for the uniform, and the parent barters for the services to have the uniform made by a newly started uniform cooperative. We want to help Zimbabweans in their desire to improve the face of the rural lifestyle, and education is a major key. If you can find it in your budget:
