Friends, Our Easter mini donation matching campaign to help fund scholarships for kids to study at the La Esperanza Schools is almost over. We need your monthly help that will be matched! We still have 39 students who need scholarship support which will provide them with basic education integrated with a full arts program.
The good news is we have a donor who is willing to match monthly (or weekly) donations up to $75 per month if you sign up before the Easter holiday is over (April 13th) . You can donate as little as $12.50 per month and have it be doubled. Ongoing monthly donations help us a great deal to sustain the scholarship program and everyday needs of the La Esperanza schools which continue to change the lives of children living in adverse, economically depressed conditions.
A monthly donation of $26 on your part with provide a half scholarship (normally $52 per month and a monthly donation of $52 will provide a full scholarship. With everything that is going on in the world this is one opportunity to give hope and perspective.
You can donate via Zeffy or Paypal. With Zeffy, Remember to reduce the amount asked for by the Zeffy platform to "zero".
