Earlybird’s GoFundMe Page Is Live!
Earlybird’s GoFundMe page is now live, making it easier for us to secure the resources we need to continue our work. As many of you know, we’re dedicated to providing a safe space for underprivileged children in Uganda. All proceeds from the campaign are used to fund our educational programs and wellness packages, which we administer directly to the communities we work with. We’d love to have you join the Earlybird Squad, and we appreciate all the support along our journey!
How will the money be used?
Our mantra is #DoingLittleThingsWithPassion, and that’s exactly what we do with all funds raised through our GoFundMe page. Here are just some of the things your donation is used toward:
Porridge Program
Too many children in Uganda do not have reliable access to food and are often forced to learn on an empty stomach. This puts them at a severe disadvantage when national exams determine their future. We started providing underprivileged students with breakfast before school, and it was immediately clear to us how many children were not receiving breakfast at home. Instead of stopping there, we are now working hard to provide lunch during the day and food packages that the children can take home.
Workshops and Remote-Learning Supplies
The COVID-19 pandemic has made remote learning necessary for children around the world. However, rural schools in Uganda do not have the resources to accommodate it. EarlyBird has been able to offer our workshops over the past year to help supplement the children’s education. We also provide art workshops and computer classes, as well as supplies to help students stay connected.
Wellness Packages
Unfortunately, many children in Uganda lack even the most basic hygiene products and educational materials. Every child deserves to be able to keep their body clean and their mind stimulated. As a result, one of the most important things Earlybird does is provide wellness packages to the children we work with. These packages include soap, face masks, sanitation products, face masks, educational materials, and backpacks.
These are just a few of the ways we use the money we raise to help children in need. We also provide students with transportation and help them plan for their futures by teaching them entrepreneurial skills.
We are grateful for your contribution and support. Any donation — however small — makes a significant impact and will not be taken for granted. Even if you’re unable to donate, you can share the link to our campaign with your community and invite them to join the Earlybird Squad.
