Get a 50% Match on Your #GivingTuesday Gift Today

By Ina & Esu | Co-Founders

Today is the International Day of Giving, known as #GivingTuesday.

It's an opportunity to pause and break away from holiday preparations and the busy-ness of everyday life to think about the less fortunate among us, who need a hand up, not a handout.

If you haven't already sent a year-end gift to The BARKA Foundation, please consider doing so today.

Thanks to GlobalGiving and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, your #GivingTuesday donation will be matched by 50%! They are offering up to $1 Million in matching funds- Global Giving's largest matching program ever.

Matching has already begun and will continue while matching funds last, so please don't wait as funds go fast!

We know there are many good causes to support. Why should you donate to us?

Over 50% of Burkina faso's population does not have access to clean drinking water.
Open defecation in the rural areas where BARKA works is 97%.
90% of the country lives by subsistence farming and is increasingly vulnerable to the drastic effects of climate change.

BARKA offers hope.
BARKA creates transformative change in village communities.
BARKA saves lives by improving health through water, sanitation and hygiene education.

Click here to make a donation today and receive a 50% match.

Thank you, and happy holidays.

The BARKA Team
