SCHOOL SPONSORSHIP

SCHOOL SPONSORSHIP

One Child, One Chance, One Future

A child who wants to learn should never be held back because their family can’t afford school fees. Yet that’s exactly what happens every day. In Kenya, education is not free – and without school fees, thousands of children are locked out. While their peers build a future, they’re left standing at closed doors.

By becoming a sponsor, you give more than just school fees. Education means knowledge – but it also means hope, confidence, and the power to shape one’s own path. Give a child the chance to walk their own road!

More detailed information

Additional donations

9,00 € a month provides your godchild with the school fee, uniform books, basic medical care, tutoring and food donations if needed. So if you like to sponsor more than one child, please leave a comment.

Every additional euro contributes to the running of the association and the supported projects. We are happy about every additional donation and say a big thank you!

Why is only a yearly payment possible?

There are two reasons for this. Firstly, as soon as we send a child to school, we have to pay the full school fees directly and, unlike other large organisations, we do not have the reserves to pay in advance. On the other hand, a monthly payment means 11 times more work in accounting and since we want to cause as few administrative costs as possible, we have decided against it. We hope for your understanding.

Give away a sponsorship

You would like to give away a school sponsorship? This is a really nice idea! Just enter the name of the person in the comment field and we will send you a sponsorship certificate in that name. You can print this out and give it as a gift.

You can terminate your sponsorship at any time - without giving any reason. Just write us a mail or give us a call. We will end the sponsorship and pay you back the money proportionally to the remaining months in the year.

NOTES FROM SPONSORS

Mia Quick

Godmother to Loise

“We are very grateful that Lea makes it possible to give children a new life in a transparent way, which is not known in this way! We are happy every time about the updates and the development of dear Loise. Here you know 100% where your money goes. Thank you dear Lea and your whole team!”

Stefanie Hanssen

Godmother to children and organization

“Lea Kabitzsch helps children in Kenya become what they want to be – whether a chef, pilot, fashion designer or monster truck driver. Frau Tonis Parfum supports the 25-year-old in her great mission. Chapeau!”

Vi Anh

Godmother to Salome

“I admire Lea and her organization and everything they have already achieved so far. It is so touching how much heart and soul they put into their work and how many children they have already been able to give a better future. I am super proud to be able to contribute a small part to this!”

Pia Kabitzsch

Godmother to Precious & Stacey

I thought about sponsoring children in need for quite a while now, however not knowing if my money will really be used where it is most needed, made me hesitate. I am now “under Lea’s trust” and a proud sponsor of four beautiful children. The communication went smoothly and I received pictures of my children on their first day of school. I am telling you guys, nothing will make you more happy than seeing these children in their cute little uniform, overly excited to finally being able to attend school… thanks to you!”

Alexandra Winter

Godmother to Nancy Atieno

“After being in Africa for tree months, also visiting the Kenyan Slums and getting to know the reality and conditions of life there, it is the best feeling to help those people. Especially those who need our support the most. Helping the kids with sponsorships to go to school and make their better life gives me hope and happiness that everyone of us can make this world a little better. Luckily UNDER Lea’s TRUST makes it possible in a beautiful transparent way and I am grateful to be part of it.

Virginia Hartwig

Godmother to Angel Nauru

“When I heard about Lea`s project I instantly knew I would want to support it. One can notice how much love and effort she continuously puts into it and it was heartwarming to see her bring those children to their first day of school with all the excitement and nervousness in their faces. I trust Lea through every step of the way and would totally take on another sponsorship. I`m beyond grateful that I could give Emma the opportunity to continue school because she deserves it, like every child.”
