Sponsor a Student

All of our students are extraordinary and have overcome a lot in their education journey. While we’d like to tell all of their stories, let’s start with some stories selected especially for you.

Maria

High school




Meet Maria, a bright and articulate 12-year-old with big dreams. She is a Junior High School student. As the youngest in her family, she has one sister and two brothers, but unlike her siblings, Maria is determined to be the first in her family to attend university. She dreams of becoming a teacher, inspired by her love for English, her favorite subject.

Maria’s family faces significant financial challenges. Her mother works as a casual laborer to support the family, while her father, a mason, suffers from chest problems that limit his ability to work regularly. Despite these hardships, Maria remains focused on her goals, showing remarkable confidence and determination in her pursuit of education.

With her siblings unable to continue past high school due to financial constraints, Maria dreams of breaking the cycle and creating a better future for herself and her family. By sponsoring Maria, you can help her fulfill her potential and achieve her dream of becoming a teacher. Your support will not only empower her but also open doors for future generations in her family. Sponsor Maria today!

About this Sponsorship

Sponsoring a secondary student is $1,020 a year, or $85 per month. Co-sponsoring a secondary student is $600 a year, or $50 per month. This amount covers the students’ tuition fees, and buys school supplies, uniforms, shoes, and other personal effects required to live at boarding school.

The Sponsor Experience

  • Cassie and Elijah

    “When we signed up to sponsor our students, we hoped it would help improve their lives. What we didn’t expect was how it would change ours.

    Our students have become our teachers about life, gratitude, optimism, and finding joy in each moment. Supporting an education is a direct investment into these students and their future. Through a sponsorship with Moja Tu, you have the opportunity to create a meaningful relationship with a student that will change not only their life, but yours as well.”
