📌 One Year of School Can Raise Earnings by 10%.

According to the World Bank, every additional year of schooling increases a child's future earnings by roughly 10%, and for girls in developing countries, the impact can be as high as 20%. For a refugee child in Chad, that means an education isn't just a way to learn. It's the most powerful tool we have to lift a family out of poverty for generations.

That's why Watoto Read builds classrooms, distributes school kits, and sponsors girls' high school fees, fighting to make sure that every year of school is a year that changes a life.

📚The simplest things make the biggest difference.

In 2023, Watoto Read distributed school supply kits, books, pencils, and erasers to refugee children in Chad. The result was extraordinary: school attendance jumped from 65% to 95%.

That's not just a statistic. That's hundreds of children who showed up, who stayed, who learned, because someone made sure they had the tools to do so.

Watoto Read has been quietly solving the overlooked barriers to education since our founding. Every donation makes this possible.

🪑 Your Gift Today Builds a Bench.

A child in Chad shouldn't have to learn from the dirt floor. But that's the reality in classrooms across Goz Beida, where benches are scarce and the school day stretches for hours.

Watoto Read builds sturdy, locally made benches that get children off the floor and into focused learning. Every bench is funded by people like you, and every bench changes the daily experience of the children who sit on it.

Your donation goes directly to the wood, the labor, and the children waiting to sit down.

Will you build a bench for a child today?
