The Mocha Club Blog

Dear Mocha Club friends,

Because of you, African Leadership has put these orphans into schools in rural village areas around Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. If not for you and the Mocha Club, these children would not otherwise be in school. Children in this area have three school terms per year. The cost of one school term is $2.70 per child to stay in primary school. For the secondary students, the cost is about $13.96. Are you catching this?? Think about that and calculate how many orphans your team is keeping in school. Please feel the weight that a sacrifice – a very small one – can have on the LIFE of a child…and how much HOPE it provides.

The following children’s school fees are now funded, and they are in school. The next update will have personal stories of these children that you are supporting…

Q: Why did you decide to join Mocha Club?

A: “Because thinking about how $7 a month on my part, paired with that of my friends, can actually provide the necessities of life for a little child sends shivers down my spine.”

All we have to say to that is AMEN, Sarah, Amen.
