Send A Child to School in Africa

"The mind is a terrible thing to waste."  Thousands of children in Africa drop out of school each year simply because their parents cannot afford to cover tuition and school-related costs.  Their minds and potential are wasted.
  
The hopeful news is that together we can help create a new start for these children.  We can mobilize a life-changing surge of love and support – by providing scholarships.  These scholarships will ensure that children stay in school for a year - covering tuition and related school expenses.

Give the Gift of Joy This Holiday Season 🎁


You can light up a child's life in Africa this holiday season. Imagine the joy of a young girl opening her very first book or a boy receiving a backpack filled with school supplies to fuel his dreams. For many children, a holiday gift isn't just a moment of happiness – it’s a message of hope, love, and possibility.

At Develop Africa, we believe every child deserves to feel special, especially during the holidays. But for too many children in underserved communities, the season comes and goes without even a small token of celebration. With your help, we can change that.

A donation of just $25 can provide a meaningful gift – a backpack, school supplies, or even a toy – to a needy child. Your generosity will show them that someone far away cares deeply about their future and happiness.

Make this holiday season unforgettable for a child. Please donate now to our Holiday Gift for a Child campaign and be part of a life-changing moment. Together, we can spread joy, ignite hope, and make the holidays magical for children in Africa.
