OUR CURRENT NEEDS
Help us grow, with our new building in Victoria Falls!
Our current production building in Victoria Falls is a tiny, rented facility that allows little room to expand the program. A new building will provide not only more space, but the ability to create more jobs and expand production. And with the money saved on rent, solar panels can be installed to alleviate disruptions from commonly experienced power outages.
Government school fees are only $7.00 per year, but this does not tell the whole story. When even food is scarce in the home this is a large amount. Required school uniforms cost $57.00 per child for one set. This is also beyond the means of most parents or grandparents and a new uniform would afford each child the dignity and pride to come to school each day. School supplies which are not provided by the government are approximately $17 per year. This is a total cost of $81 per year for each student to attend school.
A sponsored student would be expected to write a letter of thanks with their personal information and provide his/her results at the end of the school year to show testing results. Pathways-Africa will keep your contact information confidential unless otherwise directed by you.
Sponsor a Child!
Provide a one-time or annual scholarship for a child to attend school. $100 supports the education of one child
for a year at Ilitha Educare Preschool or Isiphiwo Primary School, both of which are located in Khayelitsha, the poorest and most densely populated township near Cape Town.
Help Train New Seamstresses!
More training and jobs for women mean better living conditions for families and opportunities for children to thrive.
Provide Materials for Sanitary Kits
Many women in Zimbabwe do not have access to sanitary products to help control their menstrual hygiene. As a result, women often turn to unsanitary materials that lead to tetanus or other problems, and many girls miss school days every month. Providing women and girls with washable, waterproof sanitary kits and proper health education helps break this cycle and improves their lives and the lives of their families.
