Make a Donation to BEADS! 

There are other expenses BEADS must cover, besides the girl's school fees, to keep our programs working and expanding. These costs include additional school supplies for the girls that are not covered by sponsorship fees, several of the community and environmental programs sponsored by BEADS, and operating expenses. BEADS depends on the funds raised through separate contributions from our very generous donors to keep our mission alive.

If you'd prefer, we now offer you the option of making a monthly donation.
