Friends of Ibba Girls School is reliant upon generous people like you giving their passion, commitment, expertise, time, contacts and financial support. Every contribution you give us is valuable. We're proud to say that 93 pence in every pound received goes towards the school in Ibba.
Take a look at some of the ways you can get involved below.

Donate & Regular Giving
93 pence in every pound you donate goes direct to support Ibba Girls' School. However, giving a monthly amount, such as the £33 that our Student Sponsors commit to, will help us to guarantee ongoing support for teaching, equipping, feeding and accommodating the additional 40 girls who join the school each year.
Please also consider signing up for Gift Aid, to add 25 percent to the value of your donation at no extra cost to you.
