Create Sustainability With a Recurring Gift

Consider making a recurring gift to sustain our work as we advance into our next stage of growth. Weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annual gifts maximize your support by providing the organization with stable and expected revenue, decreasing administrative expenses, and increasing the impact of your dollars on the ground in Chajul. Think of it as a subscription like Spotify, a worthwhile monthly expense like your internet bill, or like donating a couple lattes or a lunch out per week to empower girls and educate youth!
