Frequently Asked Questions
Where are my funds going?
All of your donated funds go directly to for the purpose of the organization. No one from this organization are paid employees. Once your funds are received on our end, it is sent directly to the education facility of choice, and placed under the name of the recipient. In that way, we can ensure that your donations are going directly for the purpose of education in Guyana!
Why choose girls in Guyana to provide scholarships to?
Women face more pressure from the society to not pursue post-secondary education. Although both males and females face monetary difficulties and cannot attend university in Guyana, females are more likely to be discouraged to pursue their desired educational endeavours. Providing these scholarships will encourage more women to continue their education, and secure a job of their own.
