This year, Timpir is aiming to raise $12,000 to support two schools in South Sudan with essential supplies and malaria treatment. Instead of more stuff, give a gift that changes a child’s year.

We are excited to have the Founder of Timpir, Dr Melanie Baak, visiting Brisbane on Monday 10 July 2023 and have decided to try something a little different from a movie night and will be holding an African dinner to raise much-needed funds. Our schools have recently struggled not only through COVID but have had terrible floods and our classrooms have been damaged. The community are trying their hardest to rebuild the classrooms, and in the meantime, classes continue under the trees. Funds raised will assist in rebuilding and buying much needed blackboards etc., along with paying the teachers’ salaries. A teacher in South Sudan earns $100 per month (that is less than a take-away coffee each day for the month!!).

After the rains

Since Timpir has been supporting our two schools in South Sudan, we have seen a significant growth in girls completing primary school, with the same number of boys and girls currently enrolled in Year 8 this year. Our schools are doing wonderful work keeping children at school, but we need your help.

So this June, we are walking in solidarity with all the children who miss out on school everyday because they are walking to help keep their families alive. But through our walking we will also be fundraising to support the Timpir schools who work to keep these children in school.

All of our board members will be stepping for schools and you can join us too. You can raise money individually or set up a team. You can create a personal online fundraising page at https://timpir-s4s-gdg-j943n.raisely.com/ . Just click on the ‘start fundraising’ button and set up your profile. If you would like to participate as a team, you can register your team first and then set up individual pages for each individual in your team. You can share your page through social media and email and your donors can make their tax deductible donations directly online. All money raised online will come direct to Timpir and your donors will receive a receipts for their tax deductible donations. It’s wonderful timing to get people to contribute for their end of financial year tax deductible donations. So get to it, set up your page, get some sponsors and set yourself a challenge of how many steps you’ll walk in June.

We have included two pages that you can print to keep a hard copy record of your number of steps for the month and any donations you receive that you would like to keep track of.

Record your daily steps for June and we will have a prize for the most steps and a prize for the most money raised.

Let’s step together and keep South Sudanese students in schools.

We have some exciting news!! We will be at WOMAD this year ? We will be selling some beautiful jewellery and crafts from women’s collectives & youth employment initatives in Uganda AND some beautifully made earrings from Chile. ?

Make sure you visit our stall. Our wonderful volunteers would love to see your faces.
