Sponsor or part-sponsor a student
If you would like to see your donation make a direct and personal impact, then sponsoring a Starehe student is an excellent option. You will receive termly school reports and the student will write to you.
The cost of sponsoring a student is £850 per year for four years (that is, a total of £3,400) and you can choose to sponsor or part-sponsor a child. Sponsorship fees can be paid through regular monthly donations or as a one off donation. For UK tax-payers we can also claim Gift Aid on your sponsorship fees.
Please note that every penny you donate goes towards school fees – there are no fundraising or admin charges levied by Starehe UK.
Here’s what sponsoring a student covers:-
- Uniform, shoes and sports gear;
- All teaching and teaching materials, extracurricular activities and exam fees;
- All-year round accommodation at the school, with house parents on duty 24/7;
- Three nutritious meals a day;
- Healthcare, including dentistry.
It’s truly a wonderful way to help a young person make their way in the world. The student benefiting from your sponsorship will write to you and the school will send you a report each term on his or her progress. For further details please read our Sponsorship Proposal.
