Students thanked us for donated shirts and school supplies in June 2005.  For $30 a year, you can sponsor a child's school uniform and supplies in primary school.   $163 pays for a year of secondary school, trade school, a secretarial course, or a tailoring course.
The orphans' community garden provides food and work for those without land.  Even a small donation will help pay the rent and buy seeds and tools.  The flock of chickens is growing, providing much-needed protein.

For as little as $1 per student, you can buy paper, pens, and pencils.  These are not provided free.  Orphans without families lose out.  A small library, once a dream, is now beginning to grow at Olasiti Primary School.
$350 a month runs the Olasiti Orphans Center.  Six children now live there after Zenan found the first one sleeping on his doorstep.  Children come for tutoring help after school, and a cup of porridge is served to all who come.
