Challenge

Out of the 200 students at Rare Gem, nearly 40% struggle to pay fees and stay in school. Many come from low-income or single-parent families, and some have been abandoned altogether, cast aside by stigma, or overwhelmed by financial hardship. Right now, 17 vulnerable children face dropping out over unpaid fees totaling $6,900. Without urgent support, these children may be forced to leave the one haven that believes in them.

Solution

This project will provide direct financial support to cover school fees for 17 vulnerable children at Rare Gem Talent School who are at immediate risk of dropping out due to unpaid fees totaling $6,900. Provide daily nutritious meals, pay for therapy, tuition, boarding and support their participation in extra-curricula activities. The support will help protect their right to education, nurture their potential, and break the cycle of exclusion and poverty that often traps neurodiversity children.

Long-Term Impact

This project will ensure that all 17 learners, and any other child from an underprivileged background who has a home at Rare Gem Talent School, can continue their education without fear of being sent home. It means they'll have a safe place to learn, grow, and be understood, with the full academic and therapeutic support they need to succeed. Most importantly, it will give them the chance to complete their education with dignity and hope for a successful future.
