Sponsor a child today!

Sponsorship of a child in a Project Mala School starts from just £9 a month for a Primary School child. It is £15 for a Middle School child and £25 for a Secondary School child. For that you get a welcome pack giving details of your sponsored child and DVDs of the project. Photographs and school reports are posted to a personal login and regular newsletters with interesting stories about events at the schools and life in rural India are sent via email.
