Become a sponsor

Friends for Life would not have become such a success without our sponsors. With the assistance of our sponsors, already more than 400 stduents have been bale to receive a scholarship  in the past years. In the coming years we would like to grow further and make sure that at least 1000 students receive a scholarship. There are still many more students on our waiting list who would like to continue their courses.

There are many ways to contribute to the goals of Friends for Life. For example, sponsoring one of more students by setting up a fundraising activity. All our sponsors are being informed about the activities within Friends for Life and receive a progress report at least once a year during the course of the students sponsored.
