How Your Donation Will Help
It is amazing how much “bang for the buck” can be had in Cambodia, where an average wage for most of its citizens is less than $3 per day.
The Spitler School Foundation currently has no paid staff, and the administrative expenses are minimal, consisting mainly of bank fees, and yearly tax and charitable 5500 filings with the IRS. All administrative costs are covered by donations from the Spitler family so that…
…100% of all other donations are applied directly to the school expenses and related programs.
- For a donation of $10, we can purchase a school uniform for a student.
- For a donation of $65, we can purchase a bicycle that will allow a graduating 6th grader to continue their education at a middle school located several miles away.
- For a donation of $200, we can pay the monthly salary for one of our teachers.
- For a donation of $1,800, we can pay one teacher’s salary for a full school year
. For a donation of $5,000, we can cover all of the basic expenses of the school for one month (teachers’ salaries, security guard salaries, and all school supplies).
