Here’s how our funds
are spent

Whether funding is spent on salaries of our amazing teachers, our food programme (vital for the health and welfare of our pupils), or contributing to the infrastructure of the school with new buildings or classrooms, you can be 100% sure that 100% of your money will go to one of these projects.

The chart to the left provides a summary of our running costs. Below you’ll see just some of the things that your money could pay for. Ranging from just £1 to feed a child with a porridge lunch for a month, to the cost of funding a teacher's salary for a year.

Whether you would prefer to make a regular donation or have a one off amount to donate, please follow the links below.

Ways to donate

Regular Giving

We rely on individuals, families and companies who are willing to support us over the longer term to help keep this beautiful school running and pay regular costs such as teachers’ salaries.

Regular givers receive termly updates and are invited to our 'Chat with Nayamba' Zoom so you can speak directly to teachers and students at Nayamba to hear how your kind donations really help.

One off donations

Legacy Giving

By leaving a gift to Nayamba Trust in your will you will be directly supporting our school investing in the long-term future of Nayamba. Of course there may also be inheritance tax benefits for your family as a result.

In addition, some people prefer to ask for ‘in memory’ giving - where friends and relatives are asked to donate to Nayamba in memory of their loved one. We are so grateful if you choose Nayamba.
