Education changes everything

In rural Central America and the Philippines, children dream of staying in school, teachers are ready to learn new methods, and parents want the tools to support their families’ futures. In 2026, we can make that possible—together.

$50 funds a month of tutoring for a struggling student. $250 stocks a classroom library. $500 provides a scholarship for a year. Give today and your gift goes directly to programs that work—building schools, training teachers, and opening doors that stay open long after graduation day.
