We work extremely hard to keep overhead
costs as low as possible, and put your money to work for children
and adults in rural Tanzania.
It costs $35,000 a year for the Jifunze Project to support our Community
Education Resource Centre in Kibaya, Tanzania, serving a district
wide population of 20,000 children and adults. It costs us $1,000
to send a young girl through primary school, $2,000 to send her
through secondary school, and $4,000 to allow her to receive post-secondary
school vocational training. All gifts to the Jifunze Project are
tax deductible and can be designated for a specific program or directed
to where the need is greatest. With your help, we will continue
to enrich lives across rural Tanzania with the gift of education. |

Matching
Gifts |
| |
|
|
Many businesses and corporations match,
dollar for dollar, employee donations to the charity of their choice.
Some businesses match gifts of retired employees and of employee
spouses. Some employers also make financial contributions as a match
for volunteer hours contributed by employees to the charity of their
choice. Please check with your employer to see if your contribution
to The Jifunze Project can be matched. |

Sponsor
a Student |
| |
|
|
Are you interested in sponsoring a girl
or young woman to achieve an education? There are a variety of options
available, based on your financial ability and desired length of
commitment. Please note that we only offer full scholarships for
students, guaranteed to allow them to complete their schooling,
as it is incredibly discouraging for a student to commence their
studies and then be forced to abandon them due to a lack of funding.
The text below approximates the funding required for each level
of a girl or young women's schooling
• Post-Secondary School professional training scholarship
2 year commitment of $4,000
• Secondary school education scholarship
4 year commitment of $2,000
• Primary school education scholarship
8-9 year commitment of $1,000
• Computer training course scholarship
4 week commitment of $100
To become involved at any of these funding levels please email
us at scholarships@jifunze.org. |

Kind Donations |

We shipped a 20 foot container of books,
computers and educational resources to Tanzania to enrich our educational
resource center in Kiteto District. Many thanks to all those who
participated in helping us get this together, as well as the hundreds
of individuals who gave us donations.
While we are no longer accepting large scale in-kind donations,
smaller items that can be carried as airline luggage may be appreciated. Items such as, desktop computers (the computer only, no monitor, keyboard, etc.), educational children's toys (torso models, ant farms, games, etc.), and science experiment equipment.
If you have an item that you feel might be beneficial for our work,
please check with us (info@jifunze.org)
before sending it along. Thanks! |
