That depends on the age of the student and the cost of the school.  Younger students’ tuition may be as little as $65 per year, while older students might need as much as $600 for the year.

Roughly 85-90%. Churches, groups and individuals are assessed a fee to cover operating costs, which is a requirement by the U.S. government. The reason this is a requirement is to ensure there is a regulated process to be sure the money is accounted for and is used as publicized. The operational fee is to support the internal processes required.

Once you make your donation, the money is deposited into the Africa Mission Association (AMA) account. The AMA, after regulated processing, wires the funds directly to the church where the family attends and is dispersed to the schools and verification is received.

In some countries the school year begins in January, while in other countries, the school year begins in August.
There are currently 244 students being sponsored by Christians across the US. The number is growing as we have many more applicants still needing help.
