Support the education of Kenyan orphans

Please note that 100% of your donations go to the Kenya operations — all our work in the U.S. is volunteer and our board personally donates any funds needed in the U.S. for insurance and tax expenses!

HOW TO DONATE WITHOUT PROCESSING FEES:  When you donate via PayPal or credit card, Achungo pays processing fees of 2.2%.  But, if you enroll and donate via Paypal’s Foundation using Paypal Giving, we pay no fees.  For a Donor Advised Fund that takes no fees from donor or from Achungo, check out CharityVest.org. Crypto donations: for donations of cryptocurrency, we also recommend using CharityVest.

Donations can be made online or by check. Achungo Community Center is a charitable organization under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code. Our Tax-ID is 61-1598457.   Donors will receive a receipt for their tax deductible donations. We sincerely appreciate your support.

Please let us know via email (at the bottom here) if you might be interested in committing to direct sponsorship of one of our graduates through high school and beyond.  We partner with an organization that has taken some of our graduates into their program and will enable direct letter writing.
