Funds collected are distributed to recognized, established African based non-governmental organizations (NGOs) carefully selected to partner with One Here…One There. The selection process emphasizes those NGOs with minimal overhead and measured accountability.

Our all-volunteer staff will administer and oversee the program. It is anticipated that no more than 10% of revenues will be used to support administrative costs.

Selected partner NGOs will distribute the needed monies in the best way to support qualified students. Often that means they will pay school tuition and buy books. Or, it could mean that they work with the family to free the student from his or her income-producing chores. Whatever the need is, your donation will be used to facilitate the education of an African child.

“Access to educational opportunities presents a set of critical challenges, particularly to girls and young women. There are physical, economic and cultural barriers each female student must overcome. The reality is that many girls simply are denied a chance to go to school, because their labor is needed in the home or in the fields or in the market place. We need to empower girls and women through providing scholarship aid, job skill training, and mentoring within the larger framework of micro credit activities.”
Mrs. Haoua Diatta, Founder, Micro-Credit in Africa
