There was a time, not long ago, when there were no smiles in this family … “I left school in Grade 7,
and had no idea how
to change my life …
“The community selected us for training in soap-making training because they want people willing to work, but who have no job.”
“Now, with this training in soap-making …” “I believe it is possible for my children to have a better life.”

Just One Hour

Your time to change
a lifetime!

You’re a kind person.

When you see a child in pain or danger in the world’s poorest countries, you want to help.

You’re also wise.

You know a one-off handout can’t bring lasting change. You understand you are most effective for children when you help a family be independent.

Just One Hour

is made for people
just like you!

Simply donate one hour of your wage per month, and help a family build a business to support their children.

A little grocery store. Bicycle repairs. Even soap-making – whatever business the family decides will work best, and help their children most.

What’s exciting is your monthly Just One Hour gift is matched 5:1 by an Australian Government Grant. This increases your impact SIX TIMES!
