Donate to Sankofa Summer School

Your donations help us expand our reach to people in need of financial support. In 2021, Sankofa Summer School offered full scholarships to 37% of students because of the generous donations received from people like you. In 2022, we offered full scholarships to 42% of students, including several high school students who can now attend Sankofa Summer School for free.

In 2024, we shifted to a pay-what-you-can model, further expanding accessibility for all.

For as little as $25, you can help someone get the knowledge they’ve been seeking.

Suggested donations:

$25 per individual class

$45 for a bundle of 2 classes

$65 for a bundle of 3 classes

$90 for a bundle of 4 classes

$200 for the entire curriculum

We also welcome donations of ANY amount, which goes towards the administrative costs of operating the school.

Beginning in 2024, we highlight some donors here and during the class sessions. Students will receive information packets that will have donor names/ businesses. When you make your donation, please send an email to info@sankofasummerschool.com with your business information so that we can share with students and with visitors to our website.
