Donate to our Scholarship Program in Mali:

Every dollar goes really far. It only costs about $70 a year to send a girl in Mali to elementary school which pays for her school fees, supplies, books and tutoring.

Unfortunately, we cannot accept pencils, books and other materials because shipping to Africa is too expensive. Donations of any amount would be terrific. Checks can be made payable to School Girls Unite or contributions can be made online.
