Today marks the fifth anniversary of a fantastic tradition: a day of giving back to our communities and the world. Last year, our incredible supporters raised $40,000 to educate Kenyan girls living in material poverty. This year, we’re aiming to beat last year’s goal and raise $60,000!
We’re also excited to announce that today, the impact of your gift will be doubled. The John M. Simpson Foundation has agreed to match your gifts up to the first $10,000 raised!
Here are five reasons to give to Daraja Academy today:
- Because educating girls is the single most effective means of fighting global poverty.
- Because Daraja’s first class of girls is graduating college this year, but they wouldn’t have made it past 8th grade without this opportunity.
- Because the Daraja method is holistic and comprehensive, and helps girls maximize their potential.
- Because Daraja girls understand what it means to be agents of change in their communities.
- Because we can only accept one out of every ten girls who applies, and denying girls the opportunity to access secondary school is a tragedy that is in our power to change.
We need you to be a Daraja girl’s bridge out of poverty. Daraja Academy would not exist without the support of donors like you.
Let a Daraja girl know you believe in her by DONATING TODAY!
From all of us at Daraja Academy, thank you for supporting and believing in girls’ education!
