Want to build a school in Africa?
The Goma Student Fund is a non-profit started to build and support schools in Congo. Some of my friends are involved in running it. It's incredible how much they accomplish with the limited donations they get - if you want the highest impact for your donation, you can't do better.

  • $12 - Pairs of uniforms for two students
  • $30 - Pairs of uniforms for five students
  • $60 - Teacher's Salary for a month
  • 100 - One year's tuition and supplies for two students
  • $300 - Furniture for an entire classroom

Think of it as another item on your Christmas gift list.
