It is so important to educate and empower our children. It is something most of us take for granted, but not the orphans that the IMF works with. This project is estimated to cost $105,556 US Dollars. We have broken the project down into four phases. The first phase involves the clearing of the ground, grading of the site, pouring and reinforcement of the concrete and preparing for the vertical beams which are to be set in phase two. The cost of phase one is $25,000. Since our employees started payroll deductions and change jars at some of our offices, as well as the company sponsored match, we have raised over $90,000. We are 90% of the way to raising the monies needed for this first phase.
