Change a child’s future through education
Back to School is changing the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children in some of the most impoverished rural communities and slums. You can be part of this story by giving £7 / $10 / R100 a month or more to help a precious child to complete school, thrive and look to the future with hope in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.

How your support helps
Your monthly or annual donation will provide the following to a child each school year:
Uniform
School shoes and socks
Life Skills classes
Sanitary pads for girls
Plus, they will also know that people they have never met care enough to support them. It means such a lot to the children.
In return, we will send you two reports each year by email about how Back to School is changing lives in the community you are supporting. We are committed to managing all funds and the administration of the project with integrity and transparency.
Children’s lives are already changing for the better
From refugee to head boy to university scholarship
When Ibrahim David (back right) first joined Back to School he was a refugee, unschooled and just learning English. He came to South Africa with his grandparents. Within a few years he became Head Boy. In 2018, he finished his Matric (equivalent of A Levels) with a grade average of 75%. Now, he is tutoring other refugee children in Maths and Science to help them achieve their potential and escape the cycle of poverty. Ibrahim has also secured a scholarship to go to America and study Neuroscience. What an amazing achievement! Receiving support through Back to School is about holistic support – the gift of uniform and shoes, Life Skills classes, Support Groups, counselling and mentoring all contribute to rewriting a child’s story. He is already doing well at university!
