Sponsor Education. Change a Child's Life.

The Fr. Mpiana School serves children in the Matsungu neighborhood of Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Families in this remote corner of the city rely on fishing, construction, and gardening to make a living. This work does not pay well and many families struggle to make ends meet.

75% of families in the DRC live on just $1.90 a day.

By sponsoring a child's education, you can help lift them and their community out of poverty.

Our School's Impact in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

Educating a child at the Fr. Mpiana School means:

    • Long-term Success: Children who receive an education are more likely to secure higher-paying jobs in adulthood and provide a stable living for their families. 

    • Stronger Community: Educating the children of Matsungu brings prosperity to the whole community by improving the local economy and helping lift families out of poverty.

    • Equal Access to Education: 52% of girls aged 5-17 in the DRC do not attend school. At the Fr. Mpiana School we help achieve equal access to education for all students through our donors' generosity. 195 of our 300 primary school students are girls. 

    • Clean Water: Students and families at our school have access to clean water, something that is not always available in this remote area.

 

$200 = 1 child goes to school for a year.

It costs $200/year to educate a child at the Fr. Mpiana School.  

Can't give $200? Any donation, of any amount, contributes to the education of a child and builds up the community around our school.

27 Children. 2 Years. $10,800.
