Donate/Invest

We're pioneering a new approach to donations. Rather than giving dollars that get dramatically diluted between your checkbook and the people/projects you'd like to help, you can use this method to directly provide tools that create micro-businesses in developing countries. As the famous African saying goes, "Give a man a fish and he eats for a day; teach a man to fish and he eats forever." This section gives you an opportunity to not only “teach people to fish” but also provide a variety of "fishing poles”, tools that begin a systematic, expanding progression out of poverty. See Donating Tools for Progress for a more complete description.

This list describes people in developing countries with projects and dreams, the tools and training they need to make these dreams real, and the nonprofit organizations sponsoring and overseeing the project. Just click the Donate button to send your contribution and we’ll take it from there including keeping you in touch with how the project does and how the people feel about your donation.

Tibetan School Project, Tibet $100.00
Collapse
Project Description: Tibetan Village Project supports primary schools in rural areas by providing salary of teachers and supplying textbooks and school supplies. About 60 percent of the children in rural areas of Tibet do not go to school. Schools are either nonexistent or exist only in name. The factors that cause illiteracy include lack of funding, an insufficient number of teachers, and priority of growing food over pursuing an education. Scarce opportunity for further studies and poor job prospects limit their full potential. Tibetans need your support. $500 will provide training for a rural teacher, $90 will allow us hire a teacher per month and $17 will provide scholarship to a student per month. This site offers an opportunity to donate in increment of $100.00
