Financial Help
Makeni Centre is a registered non-profit making organisation. Although there is a commitment to raising a proportion of the budget locally, Zambia is among the poorest countries in the world, severely limiting local fund-raising. Financial help is always welcomed.
Donations in Zambia are tax deductible.
Please see the Contacts page for contact details and further information.
Orphanage Support
Please consider supporting a child. A commitment to regular donations assists in planning budgets.
Donations in Kind
Tools, books in topics taught at the Centre and other equipment are always needed. Can you help?
Please see the wonderful website StuffYourRucksack for some of the things we need!
Friends of Makeni
Become a “Friend of Makeni”! A donation of US$40, £20 or K100,000 is suggested.
Volunteer Work
Every year young people come to Makeni Centre to work for between three months and a year, and some (usually older) people come for longer. Such practical help is much appreciated. Further information about volunteering can be found here.

PayPal deducts a fee of approximately 3-4%, otherwise all proceeds go to the work of Makeni Ecumenical Centre. If you want to stipulate where your money should be used, you can do so.
Of course, you can also donate directly by cheque or bank transfer or through your local Friends group.
