Dear Project of the Month Club Member,
This November, we’re proud to spotlight an organization that is nurturing curiosity and values-based learning for children in Indonesia—an effort that extends far beyond the classroom and uplifts the entire community.
In the rural village of central Java, social and economic pressures often force children to delay their education or drop out early, leaving them with limited job prospects as they grow up. The limited access to quality, affordable education stifles each child's unique potential and hinders the community's ability to thrive. Teachers also face challenges due to inadequate training and support, affecting their morale and ability to and restrict their ability to fully engage with students.
Thankfully, our November Project of the Month, TCKN Foundation, is tackling this educational challenge by building a modern, fully-equipped school in the village. The project goes beyond providing scholarships and classroom resources—it also prioritizes attracting and training skilled teachers, which will help the Foundation reach more students and expand its impact.
When the Foundation shared their plans for the new school building, they emphasized that these efforts will help them fill the school with necessary resources such as classroom equipment and library materials. “We were so thrilled and delighted to hear the news. This is an uplifting morale-booster and deeply appreciated financial support at a time of need.” Christopher Drake, Co-Founder of TCKN Foundation stated.

Thank you for your commitment to a better world!
With gratitude,
