Day students are children in need from the communities surrounding the Rafiki Villages who attend our Rafiki Schools with full scholarships or subsidies. They receive an excellent classical Christian education, daily Bible study, two nutritious meals per day, and basic school supplies. For a child in Africa, attending school means more than ABCs or 123s; it means a hope for a future – spiritually and materially. Your support makes that hope possible for these day students, their families, and their communities. We have given each day student an alias for the privacy and protection of the child and his/her family. If you sponsor a day student, you will receive some additional information about the child and will communicate with the child using the assigned alias.
