GRM is run entirely on donations from friends and organizations to provide comprehensive care for visually impaired, sighted, and community children. Your financial support provides food, healthcare, and counseling services for community children, as well as clothing.
Our estimated cost for each child per month is:
- $35 for an at-risk student/child from the community
Thanks to our sponsors, the trajectory of children’s lives has been changed and will continue to change. GRM graduates will pursue higher education in vocational, secondary, and technical schools. Some will even continue their education further to the university level. Alongside this, many will become contributing members of their communities and giving back to those less fortunate.
