Why we pool education funding

Research on child sponsorship (Lupton, 2011; Wydick et al., 2013) shows that singling out individual children for support can create inequity within communities and make a child's stability dependent on one donor's continued generosity. Ramah will pool all education funding so every child in the programme receives support equally, no child loses access because a single donor stops giving, and community cohesion is preserved.

You give monthly

Your gift joins a pooled education fund, delivered by our local team once programmes begin. No commercial middlemen in the chain.

Every child benefits

Every enrolled child will receive supplies, hygiene kits, and mentorship equally. No child is singled out or left behind.

You see the outcomes

Receive quarterly reports with attendance data, grade progression rates, and programme stories. Anything involving a child is published only with guardian consent and after safeguarding review.

Enrolment begins December 2026

We do not publish children's names, photographs, or personal stories to raise money. Funding is pooled across every enrolled child, so no child has to be presented as a case to attract a donor. You receive programme-level reporting instead.

The first field pilot runs in December 2026.

Your early donations help us prepare supplies, train mentors, and set up attendance tracking before children arrive.

Frequently asked questions

Why don't you let me sponsor one specific child?

Research shows that singling out individual children for support can create inequity within communities and makes a child's welfare dependent on one person's continued generosity. With a pooled fund, every child in the programme will receive equal support, and no child will lose access if a single donor stops giving.

How much does it cost?

Gifts will join the pooled education fund and be spent on school supplies, hygiene kits, mentorship, and the tracking that proves they arrived. Ramah is locally led with no commercial middlemen in the chain, and the spend will be published, so you can see where every cedi went.

How will I know my gift is making a difference?

You will receive quarterly reports with programme-level outcome data: attendance rates, grade progression, and programme stories, published only with guardian consent and after safeguarding review. We measure outcomes as well as outputs, and we never present an individual child as a case to attract funding.

What happens if I can no longer give?

Because funding is pooled, no individual child loses support when a single donor stops. The programme will continue for every child in it. This is one of the key advantages of community-based funding.
