About this Fundraiser

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.                 - Nelson Mandela


Over the past several years, Jill and I have absolutely found these words from Nelson Mandela to be true. We have been deeply involved with Help One Now for 7 years now, and we believe that nothing has more of an impact on a community than EDUCATIONIt brings hope for students and parents alike. It fights injustice, prevents trafficking, promotes health, confronts the roots of poverty, and paves the way for opportunity & lasting change.

And the key to a good education for any child is a GOOD TEACHER. So Jill and I are raising money to fund ONE classroom for ONE year. $3,000. That's it!

$3,000 funds ONE classroom for ONE year!  This support includes: Teacher SALARIES (65%), Teacher TRAINING (7%), Classroom SUPPLIES (8%), and ADMINISTRATION (20%).

If 100 of us give $30 (which a lot of us spend on coffee in 1 month), then we could EMPOWER A TEACHER FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR! And that would empower approximately 30-35 children for an entire year…and their parents will also be empowered, knowing that their children are in a safe learning environment while they are out working. And when an entire generation receives a good education in countries like Haiti, Uganda, Ethiopia, Peru, Zimbabwe…the ripple effect will be immeasurable!
   
Join us! Give $5, $10, $25…$100. Whatever you feel led to give. But please GIVE. And know that your donation is an investment in HOPE.

**NOTE: Thanks to many of you, Jill and I have already funded 4 Classrooms in the last 3 years...now you can help us fund number 5! **




This fundraiser is a part of a larger campaign by the people of Austin New Church. See below for more information:


What is Help One Classroom?

HELP ONE CLASSROOM, an initiative of Help One Now, is an ongoing campaign to invest in the education of children in Haiti & Uganda. Education transforms communities & breaks the cycle of extreme poverty. And it all starts with TEACHERS. A good teacher makes a world of difference, so we are raising funds for teacher salaries, training and supplies. By ensuring that the teachers can provide for themselves and their families, and equipping them with necessary supplies and training, we enhance the education of thousands of students.


Why Education?

Because, the future of every country, city and community lies in its children.  Education saves children’s lives, promotes girl’s and women’s rights, and makes people healthier.  Education boosts economic growth, reduces poverty, and increases income.

As education transforms communities and breaks the cycle of extreme poverty, we are bringing opportunity & hope to entire regions!
