Tim McKenna Our annual Match Day Campaign is TSF's largest fundraising event of the year thanks to you. On behalf of The School Fund, our field partners, and our current and past students, thank you for giving the gift of an education.

This is it - TSF Match Day 2024: Donate today to a student featured on The School Fund platform and your generosity will be 100% matched.

The PROCESS is simple. Choose a student and pay for all or part of their current year education.

The IMPACT is life transforming. Education is the most powerful tool to overcome poverty, to increase equality and to expand opportunity.

Today, give the gift that can never be taken away - the gift of an education.

Your generosity is appreciated.

SUPPORT OUR MISSION. LET'S FILL THESE SEATS!

The School Fund's 2024 Match Day Campaign is only five days away. If you have not done so already, please set a calendar reminder for next Wednesday, September 11, and include our website address - www.theschoolfund.org. Donations made to students profiled on the TSF website on this day will be 100% matched, up to $30,000.

You may not realize it, but most developing countries only offer compulsory (i.e., paid) education up to the eighth grade on average. The School Fund's mission is to raise scholarships for students aspiring to continue their education beyond elementary school because we believe that education is the most powerful tool to overcome poverty, to increase equality, and to expand opportunity.

Many of you responded to my previous post about Match Day, seeking additional information on the donor-student journaling function of the TSF platform. This unique feature allows you to communicate securely with your sponsored students, provide encouraging words, or simply get to know them better. I have shared some of these dialogues below, highlighting four of our exceptional students and acknowledging four of our generous contributors.

Therefore, consider joining Nicole, Steve, Kelli, and Cindy in providing the gift of education to a promising young individual aspiring to continue their studies at the secondary/high school level. Your forthcoming generosity is greatly appreciated.

Tim McKenna Admittedly, I am biased as the Executive Director of The School Fund, but I believe our bottom-up approach of letting donors like you choose what student to financially support, guaranteeing that 100% of that donation goes to the student selected, and even providing a messaging function to allow donors and students to communicate with each other, is incredibly effective in ensuring that young men and women who want to continue their high school education get the financial assistance they need so that they may continue to move forward and keep dreaming of endless possibilities. Please consider helping our cause by donating today or during The School Fund's Match Day Campaign on September 11. Thanks & God Bless.

The School Fund’s Match Day Campaign is one month away on September 11, when donations made via www.theschoolfund.org will be DOUBLED!

Incredibly, this means that for the cost of a daily Starbucks over a one-month period, you can fully finance one year of schooling in India – to include tuition, books and uniform – or help support a student in South America or Africa.

To date, some 5,000 TSF supporters have funded scholarships to 1,661 students who have completed 4,370 academic years of schooling.

We invite you to join our ranks and support TSF to continue its mission of increasing equality, expanding opportunity, and helping to overcome poverty through the gift of an education! Thank you in advance for your generosity and support.
