Dear Project Supporters,
Your support is truly appreciated as every dollar you donate is helping more students at the Kissinger School in Ghana receive backpacks filled with school supplies. Not only will students not have to carry their heavy books on their head, but they will also have the school supplies they need such as pencils, pens, notebooks, and crayons.
The school expressed their gratitude for the support their students have received in the past and express their hope that their students will continue to receive school supplies this school year also. According to the UN, 3.65 million Ghanaian children are living in poverty (2016). This explains why their parents are not able to purchase the needed backpacks and school supplies.
The Kissinger school is working to provide each of its students with backpacks full of school supplies. We encourage you to consider starting a monthly recurring donation here to help the Kissinger School have the funds needed to continue their school programs. Even a few dollars a month will go a long way. Please also share this with your contacts and invite them to consider supporting this ongoing project.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org.
With great appreciation,
Amy &The Develop Africa Team
