    Description

    Feed 200 Children in Ebonyi State, Nigeria – $5,000 Goal

    MARYPAT LOVE & CARE FOUNDATION – Org #106432 – GlobalGiving Top-Ranked, Vetted, Effective – Superstar 122 Points – ACTIVE Project #78949

    FUNDING GOAL: $5,000 for 200 children

    IMPACT: 200 children returned to school in 4 LGAs of Ebonyi

    Bringing 200 Vulnerable and Out-of-School Children Back to School in Ebonyi, Nigeria

    About This Opportunity:

    In Ebonyi State, 200 children are out of school – not because they don't want to learn, but because hunger took their classroom.

    Their mothers are widows or have husbands incapacitated by stroke, blindness, or paralysis. The family cannot afford $30 for school fees, uniforms, and books.

    These children sit at home while their mates learn. Some hawk pure water on streets. Their future is fading.

    MARYPAT LOVE & CARE FOUNDATION (CAC IT 184979 | UNP 68571) wants to return 1,000 children to school with $30 per child. But we start with 200 children as approved by GlobalGiving.

    $25 Provides for 1 Child:

    • School fees
    • Uniform
    • Books and writing materials
    • School bag
    • Daily meal for 1 term

    We have identified the children in Abakaliki, Izzi, Ezza North & South. We need Fundraising Champions to make this possible.

    Volunteer Role: Fundraising Champion for Children Education

    Impact: $25 = 1 child back to school. $250 = 10 children. $5,000 = 200 children full.
