WHAT DOES A SPONSORSHIP MEAN?

With a student sponsorship, you have the opportunity to individually support a child on their educational journey. There are several areas in which you can become a sponsor:

There are several areas in which you can become a sponsor:

  • Kindergarten place at Good Hope for one child (120€ per year)
  • School education for pupils in nearby government schools (details of the different types of school can be found in the document) (300-400€ per year)
  • Training or studies (600-1000€ per year)

The annual school fees are very expensive and unaffordable for many Tanzanian families. Children who don’t make it into public schools via the direct route (official government test for secondary schools) often miss out on education due to high costs. Children and young people try to earn money for their families by selling fruit and vegetables at markets or doing unskilled work in construction. Therefore, a student sponsorship is a hope for improving life quality, enabling children and young people to shape their own futures.

At Good Hope, we adopt a holistic approach. Students proposed for sponsorship are already integral parts of our programs. Through their involvement, we understand the needs and motivations of the students even before the sponsorship begins. Regular home visits also allow us to know the family circumstances of our students. This ensures that your sponsorship supports those who need it most. As part of our holistic approach, children are increasingly supported from kindergarten at Good Hope until they complete their schooling or training. This comprehensive support ensures that a child can realize their dreams without deviation.

Access to education is a priceless asset for students, giving them hope for a stable future. They can support their families, pursue university education, or start apprenticeships in various fields if they are more inclined towards trades. As you can see, the possibilities are endless!
