What is Anjiro Initiative?

Anjiro Initiative is a nonprofit organization run by local leaders that started in the farming community of Anjiro, Madagascar.

Social change requires communities to have agency over their circumstances. Anjiro Initiative contributes to this outcome by partnering with families to provide education to the youth in rural Madagascar, while local heroes assume leadership roles. Learn more at AnjiroInitiative.org.

What Happens To Donations?

Donated funds are granted directly to schools to cover the full cost of annual tuition fees for students at the primary, middle, secondary, and university levels. This amounts to an approximate cost of $100 for each student every year.

While tuition costs are financed by Anjiro Initiative, Malagasy families cover the required expenses for books, uniforms, field trips, sports equipment, meals, lodging, living expenses, and other incidentals. These expenses typically add up to half of a student’s yearly educational expenditures. The hard work and dedication of local families and leaders, together with donors' support, is an effective partnership that yields results.

Donations towards this campaign will first be designated to this community until this fundraiser is fully funded. In the event that this campaign is overfunded, donors understand and acknowledge that their donation will be redirected to Anjiro Initiative’s general fund in order to support other Anjiro Initiative campaigns.

Are Donations Tax Deductible?

Yes, Anjiro Initiative is a 501(c)(3) public nonprofit organization, so contributions are tax-deductible in the United States. Donors receive a tax receipt from the PayPal Giving Fund, a 501(c)(3) charity that receives the donations and then grants the funds to Anjiro Initiative.

Is it Possible to Donate Without Using GoFundMe?

Yes, donations are also accepted by check, PayPal, and Venmo .

Any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for contributing to this cause, which means so much to the community of Ambodiakatra.
