JJ is raising funds for in lieu of bday presents for our friends at Anjiro Initiative to help pay for all the school fees for children in his mom's (Bako) ancesteral village of Anamonana, Fianarantsoa Madagascar.

We believe it is important for our kids to support their cousins and all the children in their maternal ancesteral village to be able to attend school (pay public school fees), get school supplies, and continue on the path of higher education. In the past we have been able to send 15 students to school and this year we want to make it 50 students from Bako's village and WE NEED YOUR HELP!

All funds will go to Anjiro Initiative to add Bako's Village (Anamonana in Fianarantsoa Provence of Madagascar) as a site for this youth empowerment and education program in Madagascar. They make sure rural children have a path to attend school and continue onto higher education and have a great track record in making it happen in this region of Madagascar.
