Commit to making an annual impact

Setting up an annual gift is simple to do and one of the easiest, most impactful, and reliable ways you can help ensure we’re able to be there for girls and women in rural Africa, no matter what challenges arise.

You stay in control of your gift and can use our portal to update the amount, pause, or cancel at any time. Download your tax receipts and dedicate your gift to a loved one, if you so choose. 

How we use your donation

As well as paying school fees and other essentials, such as uniforms, books, and menstrual products, your gift helps beyond the classroom, supporting young graduates with the training and resources they need to become economically independent leaders in their communities.

Over 90% of every dollar we spend goes to our programs.

Start your commitment to girls’ education


$220 can secure a girl’s right to education for a year by providing the essentials she needs.


How does my gift help?

Every year, poverty keeps millions of girls in Africa from going to school. But when you educate a girl, everything changes.

  • 2X

    Women with a secondary school education will earn twice as much, on average, as women without an education. Lack of girls' secondary education costs countries between $15 and $30 trillion in lost lifetime productivity and earnings.

  • 50%

    A child whose mother can read is 50% more likely to live past the age of 5 and to be immunized, and is twice as likely to go to school.

    Global Partnership for Education (2024)

  • 3x

    Educated girls are up to three times less likely to become HIV-positive, and at reduced risk of malaria.

When you educate one girl, you educate many

Every girl you support through CAMFED will go on to help at least three others to go to school, multiplying your impact far into the future.
