All of us at Amina's Gift have been busy making plans for 2020 and are looking forward to another successful year.
We will also have a capital campaign to raise funds for the Happy Readers project the Mina cup and building our first library.
Amina's Gift is launching a Capital Campaign to raise $20,000 in 2020. Our largest endeavor thus far, we are hoping to make the lives of our Zimbabwe kids even better. We are targeting Healthy Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Healthy Places.
An expansion of the Happy Readers project that will teach primary kids how to read in English.
We will be providing the girls in our organization with the Mina Cup to help manage their menstrual cycle and prevent them from missing school during this time. Just as importantly, we teach the boys what this means.
We will be building our first library in Zimbabwe. It will allow our students a safe, quiet place to study at night when there are no lights at their homes. It will be a place that encourages a culture of reading.

Amina's Gift provides direct funding for African children who need basic daily living necessities like food, clothes and shoes. We also pay for school fees and transportation to local clinics to receive government provided health care and medications.
We support ourselves by purchasing crafts by local artists and then reselling them. This provides employment for the local artists, who in return are able to support their families. The profits are used to support and encourage a good education for all the children in the community.
