Give the Gift of Education
As 2025 draws to a close and the holiday season is upon us, Start the Ripple is offering you the chance to give a gift like no other — the gift of education. Over the past three years, we have watched Ebenezer Junior School explode with life, growing from six students to one hundred and sixty-two. We are thrilled to have played a role in enabling this expansion, but with greater reach come greater needs. Below are four essential items your donation helps provide to children in rural Uganda. Please consider gifting one of these blessings on behalf of someone you love. In return, you will receive a customized e-certificate to share. Thank you for your support!
Gift Options
$10 buys school supplies
A pencil and a workbook may seem insignificant to some, but to the students at Ebenezer Junior School they mean the world is at their fingertips. These everyday items are essential to increasing literacy and numeracy rates in rural Uganda. Sponsor enough for an entire classroom!
$15 buys a uniform
To many children, a uniform is more than something to wear, it signifies belonging. Uniforms bring pride and a sense of achievement to the hearts of these young students, and our wish is to make them available to every child at Ebenezer Junior School.
$20 buys 37 lbs of beans
It is nearly impossible to learn with a hungry belly, so Ebenezer Junior School strives to provide adequate nutrition to all students and staff. This means we go through a whole lot of beans. Each year, we serve more than 86,000 meals. Help lighten our load by purchasing a Bucket o’ Beans!
$50 sponsors a child’s education
Sponsor an entire year of education for one Nursery or Primary School student in rural Uganda. Nearly 94% of the children attending Ebenezer Junior School cannot afford school fees and rely on sponsorships to receive their education. This gift covers a full year of expenses for one child.
