Did You Know You Can Sponsor A Latrine?

By Merritt Frey, Executive Director

Naming rights for a whole school can be expensive for some of us, but why not sponsor a classroom or principal’s office?

Did you know you can sponsor a latrine in someone’s honor? Well you can. Heck, you can even name it after yourself! Okay, the latrine might not be your first choice, but you can sponsor a classroom, the principal’s office, a solar system, or a set of textbooks for our new school in N’Goko too!

Every size gift matters as we build a new school for N’Goko’s children. But for those interested in sponsoring whole pieces of the school, we have many options. The list is below, or check out this page where you can sponsor any of these items with a click of a “Sponsor This!” button!


A CLASSROOM: $10,000

Name your classroom for yourself, a loved one, your business, etc. A plaque is placed inside your classroom, and you are invited to the school opening. Receive recognition in online materials & regular updates from your school. Three available per school build — two still available!

THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE: $6,000

Were you sent to the principal's office a lot as a child? Celebrate how far you've come! Sponsors can name the office, and a plaque is placed inside the office. Receive recognition in online materials & regular updates from your school. One available per school build.

A LATRINE BLOCK: $3,000

It isn't the most lovely item but it is perhaps the most needed! Name the latrine for yourself, a loved one, your business, etc. A plaque is placed outside the latrines. Receive recognition in online materials & regular updates from your school. Two available per school build.

SOLAR POWER: $2,000

Help students succeed with light for night studying and power to charge a mobile computer library. Receive recognition in online materials & regular updates from your school. One available per school build.
