Besides having volunteers on-site in Tanzania, Orphans Africa also needs people who are willing to raise funds to help the orphans and widows. This can be done right in your own community: within a family unit, a church, a school, or a civic club. Already we’ve had many generous people (including children!) raise funds and awareness. Here are only some of the ways you too can help:
Organize a walk-a-thon
Organize a community or church BBQ, pool party, music fest, or something similar
Start a “pocket change drive” at your school or church. All pocket change for one year goes into the pot
Organize a carwash or bake sale
Organize an auction, with goods and services donated by local businesses
Coordinate a recycling drive
Throw a party!
