How It Works
From Your Donation to a Transformed Life
A transparent, rigorous, and accountable process — from identifying a child in need all the way through to your termly donor report.

We believe donors deserve to know exactly how their money works. Below is our full process — from community identification to annual impact reporting. Every step is documented, every dollar accounted for.
Our Director of Operations works alongside rural school headmasters, teachers, and community leaders to identify children who cannot afford school necessities. Referrals come from trusted local partners who know the families personally.
Shortlisted families complete a structured needs assessment. We assess household income, number of dependents, food security, existing attendance, and the child's academic history. All assessments are documented and stored securely.
Selected children are formally enrolled. Tuition is paid directly to the school — never through the family. Each child receives their complete school kit and the family is registered for monthly food vouchers before the term begins.
Throughout each term, our team makes in-person visits to verify attendance, review academic progress, and assess family wellbeing. Children who are struggling receive additional tutoring support and families are assessed for livelihood projects.
At the end of every term, donors receive a detailed report including their sponsored child's academic results, attendance, a personal narrative update, and a financial breakdown. We believe in full transparency — always.
We will never spend more than 15% of total funds on administration. At least 85 cents of every dollar raised goes directly to program delivery — children's fees, kits, food, and livelihood projects.
If at any time a donor wishes to see our financial records, meeting minutes, or beneficiary reports, we will provide them within 7 business days.
