Improving Lives

In Brazil and Africa

Grants for Education, Health & Job Skills

Our Mission: Creating opportunity and lasting change for the poor in Brazil & Africa

Education

Our educational grants build classrooms and bathrooms; equip rural schools with desks, technology, and supplies; provide scholarships and job skills training; fund safe spaces for children in high-risk areas; expand future opportunities; and invest in school-based projects that help schools meet their needs and strengthen their communities.

Health

Our grants provide clean water through wells and rain-harvesting systems for schools in Uganda and Kenya; deliver essential medicines to rural clinics in Ghana, Chad, and Tanzania; support youth leadership programs and women’s mental health initiatives in Brazil; and ensure students walking long distances in rural DRC begin each day with a nutritious breakfast.

Economic Independence

Our grants for scholarships and vocational training, combined with networking, financial literacy programs, and zero-cost microloans, empower women and youth to build careers, start small businesses, achieve sustainable livelihoods, support their families, and strengthen their communities by creating local jobs and providing essential services.

Your Gifts, Their New Beginning

Rain-Harvesting Tanks: Clean Water for Schools

“Thank you for the tank donated to our school. We now use free, safe rainwater collected in the tank, which has reduced the risk of accidents from dangerous animals along the long distances we previously had to walk to fetch water for the many needs of the school.”

St. Aloysius Misozi Primary School – Uganda

Wells: More than Clean Water for Thousands of Children

“Our learners were traveling a very long risky distance for water, the distance had risks like rape, defilement, kidnaping, child sacrifice. Which could only be solved with the source water at school.”

BM Mother Care School, Uganda

Job Skills: Hope for Women Excluded from Formal Education

Classrooms: Education Starts with a Safe Place to Learn

Thanks to Angels’ donors, our school now has a safe, fully functioning classroom that will serve children for years to come. More than bricks and mortar, this space represents hope, opportunity, and a brighter future for our students and the wider community.”

Dormitories for Village Schools: From Long Walks to Safe Beds

“We thank you so much for our “Angel’s Dormitory.” Because of your generosity, 85 girls are now safe, well-rested, and able to focus on their studies. Your support ended the long, dangerous walks to school that left them tired and hungry. Today, they wake up close to school—protected, prepared, and ready to learn, grow, and dream.”

Desks: From the Floor to a Desk

Computers and Printers: Giving Students the Tools to Succeed

“The donation of stationery and machines has greatly impacted our students and teachers. The machines have not only eased our workload but also enabled learners and teachers to acquire valuable computer skills.”

From Opportunity to Independence: A Woman-Led Micro-Business

“You Boosted Me” said Carol N. who was able to open and grow her woman led micro-business. Our Micro Business Loans equip women with the capital and guidance to build sustainable businesses and provide for their families. These small loans create independence and economic stability while bringing essential goods and services to rural communities that once lacked access—and in some cases, generating new jobs. All made possible through the generosity of our donors.

Fitness, Music and Arts Grants: Creative Programs, Brighter Futures

Our Music and Arts Grants give underprivileged children in rural and at-risk communities opportunities they would otherwise never have. Through creative programs—including music, arts, and sports camps—children discover new talents and build lasting confidence. At one baseball camp, a shy young girl hit the ball for the first time and said, “I never thought I could do this—now I know I can do anything!” These moments of self-belief open doors to brighter futures, made possible through the generosity of our donors.

Girls’ Dignity Initiative: Education Without Interruption

Re-usable Sanitary Pads Program for Girls: In partnership with local organizations, we provide reusable pads, menstrual health and hygiene education, and hands-on pad making training. Without supplies, girls miss several days of school every month — a serious barrier to their education. Reusable solutions restore dignity, keep girls in class, and are better for the planet.
