A small cost to change lives
It costs about $1,000/year to fund college or technical school for one student. That’s roughly $84/month – sounds like a lot for a monthly donation but not much at all when you consider it goes towards a college degree or trade certification. Your donation pays for tuition and school supplies including a laptop.
Part of the Sponsor a Scholar Program is the expectation that our scholars will give back to the community while attending college and beyond. All EFO scholars volunteer time regularly with their orphanage of origin applying the skills they are learning at school to benefit their own community and serve as mentors to younger orphans.
Still not sure you can afford $84/month?
Consider giving a monthly gift of half ($42) or a quarter ($21) of a scholarship or get together with a group of friends or small group and pool your funds together.
