My name is Mari Gruner, and I am raising funds to build a brand new school in Senegal with buildOn. I am deeply moved by the power of education to transform lives, and I am excited to join a team that will help construct the school and create a safe, inspiring place for children to learn. This project brings together local communities and volunteers to make a lasting difference.

I believe that every child deserves the opportunity to learn and lead. buildOn mobilizes communities in low-income countries to build schools while American youth serve and grow through hands-on experience. By supporting this project, you are investing in classrooms, materials, and the infrastructure needed to give students a chance at a brighter future.

This work does more than build walls. It builds leaders, hope, and possibility. The school we help create will be a center for learning, a place where tomorrow's global leaders can gain skills and confidence. I am honored to be part of a team bringing that opportunity to Senegal.

Please join me in making this dream a reality. Your donation will directly support the construction and resources for the new school and will help unlock opportunities for children and families. Give what you can today and stand with me and buildOn to create lasting change.

Let's build a school in Senegal together!

I appreciate your support!
