One sponsor. One child.
A changed life.
In Nigeria, 20.2 million children are out of school — many because their families cannot afford fees that cost less than a cup of coffee a day in the UK. Child sponsorship is direct, transparent and transformative.
Everything a child needs to thrive
Sponsorship is not a vague donation. It is a specific set of resources, paid directly to verified schools and suppliers, tracked on our platform.
School Fees
Full term and annual registration fees paid directly to the partner school — no money passes through the family.
Uniform & Shoes
A complete school uniform and pair of shoes at the start of each academic year. Presented at a community ceremony.
Textbooks & Supplies
All required textbooks, exercise books, pens, geometry sets and school bags — sourced locally to support Nigerian businesses.
Exam Fees
WAEC, NECO, JAMB and NABTEB registration fees covered — removing the most common barrier to secondary school completion.
Mentorship
Each sponsored child is paired with a verified mentor — a professional from their home LGA who meets with them once per term.
Termly Reports
Sponsors receive a personalised impact report every term — attendance record, grades, a note from the child, and a photo update.

Verified Partners Only
Every school in our network is verified by CARE AFRICA field staff. We visit in person, confirm registration, and audit attendance records each term before releasing funds.
Termly Impact Reports
Three times per year, you receive a personalised report: your child's attendance record, academic performance summary, a handwritten note and a photograph. No jargon, no vagueness.
Full Audit Trail
Every payment — school fees, uniform, books, exam registration — is logged on the CARE AFRICA platform with receipts. Sponsors can request a full expenditure breakdown at any time.
