Tloma Primary School is a government school and receives the equivalent of 25 cents per student per month, or about US$200. Monthly expenses include personnel, exam printing, office supplies, water and electricity, building repair and maintenance, medical for student accidents, and more. It doesn’t take a math genius to realize there isn’t enough money to operate the school. They need help in order to survive.
There are several things you can do to help our school:
-
- Student sponsorship. This is our primary focus at present. Visit our non-profit site Tlomagiving.org for more details on sponsoring a student.
- Make a tax-deductible donation through PayPal. You can designate how you would like your donation to be used: student scholarships, clean water, school expenses, student school supplies, uniforms, food, or where most needed.
