Why this Project is Important
Potential Long Term Impact
The goal of GlobalGiving's matching fund is to provide donors an opportunity to give quickly and reward the most accountable, high-reporting projects and to help projects generate more funds.
Project Message
It is one thing to make a donation and find out "you've purchased an ink cartridge"; it's a whole other thing to learn that the child of an illiterate mother is receiving at-home tutoring.
- Tilly Lavenás, GlobalGiving Donor
