Update: Year of the Pencil Campaign

By Amy Baty-Herbert | Project Leader

We are thrilled to share a heartfelt THANK YOU for your generous contributions so far to the Year of the Pencil campaign! Thanks in part to your support, we successfully purchased and shipped the first set of pencils, sharpeners, and pencil pouches to students in Freetown, Sierra Leone.

These essential supplies are already on their way, bringing hope and opportunity to children eager to learn. Your kindness ensures that students have the tools they need to write, draw, and dream big!

See the impact YOU made! Check out this video

Every pencil you provide fuels a child’s education and future.  Please consider sharing this initiative with your network to help even more students thrive.

Learn more at the Year of the Pencil page

Thank you for making a difference—one pencil at a time!

If you have any questions, feel free to email us at GlobalGiving@developafrica.org. 

With gratitude,
The Develop Africa Team

PS. Join us next week in celebrating the power of small acts of generosity during GlobalGiving's Little by Little campaign, from March 25-28th. Your donations of up to $50 during this special campaign will be matched by GlobalGiving at 50%, increasing the impact of your contribution.
