Our Mission: Turning Youth into Changemakers

At SINA, we transform disadvantaged youth from aid recipients to leaders shaping their future. Our Changemaker-maker model in 12 African communities empowers youth to create their own learning path, develop vital skills, and launch social enterprises. Join us in empowering a generation for a self-sustaining future in Africa.

Our Goal: Empowering 500 Changemakers for 2024

This Giving Tuesday, help us sponsor 40 scholars in each of our 12 communities. With just $42/40€, you can support a youth for a month or $500 for a year. Your contribution is a step towards a regenerative future in Africa.

How to Contribute:

Our transformational and purpose-driven approach shifts the youth from passive aid recipients to active drivers of their own futures, leading to a prosperous and regenerative future for themselves and their communities. It costs 42 USD to sponsor one youth/ 500 USD per year. Our goal is to have 40 scholars sponsored in each of our 12 SINA communities, so a total of 500 changemakers for 2024, who will unleash their potentials within one year and become the change they want to see as enabled social entrepreneurs.

FAQ

Can I sponsor a youth from a specific SINA Community?
Yes, in this case please use our donation page and enter into the “Purpose” the name of the SINA Community you wish to sponsor a youth in, which makes the donation purpose bound to this SINA.

Can I get to know the person I am sponsoring?
Yes. After the start of the program (typically in January, June and September) when the scholar(s) have started unleashing their potentials, we will provide you with their name, a small introductory video and progress over time. We would not advise direct contact at first but after some months, this can be very fruitful and zoom conversations or visits on the ground are possible.

Is my donation tax deductible?
Your donation is tax deductible in Germany via GLS Bank, in the USA via every.org, in Canada via KBF and Austria via Crossing Borders with a bank transfer and the purpose “SINA”.
