PAY THE TEACHERS.
KEEP THE KIDS IN SCHOOL.
Nothing from this campaign stays in our U.S. office. It goes straight to the camps and classrooms — to pay the people who kept showing up and keep the children in school.

Why We're Doing This
A few days ago I told our supporters that we were behind on payroll. What I did not tell them was the actual number. It is about $15,000.
The schools never stopped. Our teachers kept teaching. Our cooks kept preparing meals. Our field team kept serving more than 650 children even while we fell months behind.
These are not people waiting for us to start some future project. They are already in the classrooms. They have already done the work. We need to make them whole.
We are going to finish this.
This is Bilal. On the left, Nursery 1 three years ago. On the right, Bilal today, entering Primary 1.
Three years of teachers showing up. Three years of lessons, meals, books and ordinary school days. That is what continuity produces.
See the Work for Yourself
Our Nigeria team posts constantly from the classrooms and camps. You do not have to take our word for what is happening. Watch the work as it happens.
