Empower Education in Africa: Help Ship School Supplies to Communities in Need

For over 17 years, Develop Africa has been empowering students across Africa by providing access to essential educational materials. As the founder of this nonprofit, I have witnessed the profound impact that books and school supplies can have on families, schools, and entire communities.

Why School Supplies?

In many African countries, education is often the only path out of poverty, but many children face severe challenges due to the lack of basic supplies. Students frequently have to share a single notebook, borrow pencils from classmates, or go without textbooks entirely. This prevents them from fully engaging in their education and pursuing their dreams.

Your Donation: A Direct Impact

By contributing to our shipping fund, you are directly placing school supplies into the hands of children who need them most. Every year, we ship out tens of barrels filled with donated books, pencils, notebooks, and other essential items. However, shipping costs are high, and we need your help to ensure these vital resources reach their destinations. 

We also decline container loads of donated items because of the shipping costs.

Every dollar you contribute brings us closer to a future where every child has the tools they need to succeed in school. A donation today will help:

• - Equip classrooms with much-needed supplies.
• - Relieve the financial burden on parents and families.
• - Support teachers by providing them with the resources to enhance learning.
• - Foster hope in children, helping them see a future of opportunities.
