Help Only Once - NkoniEducationalCentre

To contribute to our project you can also make a one-time donation of any sum.

At this time in particulare, nearing Christmas 2004, we are searching for funds for three specific causes:

1) construction of a local infermary

We need at least 5.000€ put aside before we can think about starting construction of a local, adjacent to the school, adequate for the purpouse and with a minimum of hygenical standard, supplied with doors and windows, proper floor and a minimum of equipment.

2) aquire a basic supply of medicins for medical aid. We need ca. 700€, the medicine kit will the be used by [Betty], one of the adopted girls who are completing an education in medical assistance.

3) an addition of sugar in the porrige every day.

Federica and Massimo in Torino helped in 2003 to give a bit of sugar in the porrige twice a week: the initiative was succesful and now we want to gather more funds to guarantee some sugar every day and all of 2005.

We have a budget of ca. 2400€ for the sugar.

Other possibilities for applying your generous contributions are:

school material for the children in the elementary classes

aquire tools for gardening

At the school we have started working on a vegetable garden where the older children grow vegetables and plant bananas to have something more to cook at school, but they lack proper tools.

administration of a hot meal with meat once a week.

It is impossible to guarantee more, but even once a week would be a very nice variation from their usual diet.

aquire material for constructing doors - windows - proper floors.

Depending on the the whole that is contributed, if we know that there is money available for the continued guarantee of a regular supply of lumber - made by the adults and youth at the carpenter course - in the neccesary quantity.

aquire a blanket (price ca 15€) in an inflammable material for each of the children.
