Help us to share the gift of literacy with Africa’s poorest children
A little goes a long way in countries like Zambia. Just a small amount can help us continue our work of teaching children how to read and write.
Here are a few examples of how your donation can help:
Help educate a child:

£10 educates a child at Shine for a month
Help feed a child:
£13 feeds a whole class for a month
£94 feeds the whole school for a month
(This works out to just £0.72p per month to feed a child at our school, based on current pupil numbers)
Help pay for a teacher:
£17 pays a teacher for a week
£74 pays a teacher for a month
Please note: these prices are as accurate as possible but are only approximate due to fluctuations in exchange rates, prices of raw materials in Zambia and pupil numbers
We last updated our figures in March 2012. The figures have increased since 2011 due to an increase in pupil numbers, the cost of charcoal and increases in the allowances we pay our teachers.
