With your help, we got a lot done in 2021, including moving our alums toward better jobs via the Global Skills Initiative training, pictured above and below. But there is so much more to do. Almost all families lost breadwinners or jobs this year, forcing many teens to consider dropping out of school. Mbali*, age 13, shared her situation this way, “Life is difficult because my father lost his job. My parents can no longer pay my school fees. When I went to infinite Family, I felt relieved and felt like I was home.”
There is still time and two extra reasons to donate to Infinite Family before the end of the year. For starters, one of Infinite Family’s generous Directors wants to make your gift go twice as far. His Above and Beyond Challenge will match, dollar for dollar, all new donors and annual gift increases through Dec. 31!
$1,500 Sponsors 1 year of college courses
$325 Supplies the full package of GED tests to advance to college
$185 Provides access to GED study materials for 1 year
$75 Allows a student to take 1 required GED test
$35 Provides 3 months of computer and internet access
$10 Pays the college application fee for 1 student
Furthermore, Infinite Family qualifies for the additional IRS $300 charitable tax deduction ($600 for couples). This is on top of the standard deduction you receive next April . Read the IRS notice here.
Don’t miss out! Take advantage of both benefits by making your gift to Infinite Family now. We thank you for being part of our Infinite Family and your continued support during these difficult times.
