If you haven’t gotten a chance to donate toward the 2020 Daylight Gala Fund there is still time to DOUBLE YOUR DONATION! Just click here and the Daylight Board will match up to $9,000.00! That means your donation is doubled here, but it is also doubled by the good works of our staff and volunteers at Daylight Center and School in Kenya!

If you have not watched our Gala Video, you can view it below, on our YouTube Channel here or on our Facebook account here.  You will hear from one of our parents, Rosemary, as she explains how those at Daylight School use your dollars to buy seeds to grow corn and material to make clothes for the students. She explains how every dollar we send to the school is doubled! And now your donation will be tripled with the donation match! 

But the deadline for the match is this Sunday, October 11th – so hurry and make sure your donation goes even further!  *Please note if you mail in a donation, we will honor the match for anything postmarked by October 11, 2020.

DONATE HERE

Our Daylight staff in Kenya will use part of the donations to give the school a much needed coat of fresh paint in the classrooms so when school resumes in the new year (with added safety precautions) the students can look forward to a fresh start! Thanks to all our supporters over the past twelve years for making the dream of an education a reality for so many amazing students and future leaders! Please continue to keep the students and staff in your thoughts and prayers. 

Thanks to all of you, our first ever Daylight Virtual Gala was a great success! We had many families gather to watch, others had socially distanced events, and even virtual watch parties! We want to thank all of you that took time to join us on Sunday and that have watched the Gala since! A recording of the event is available at these links:
