Benchmates Foundation is preparing its first circle in Niger State. People in other states who want to bring a circle to their community can also get in touch.

Volunteer as a Facilitator

Students, graduates and corps members can volunteer as facilitators. Volunteers are vetted and trained. The role is unpaid.

Offer a Venue

Community and faith groups can offer a free, roofed venue where children can meet in an open, visible setting.

Give Materials or Local Support

Local giving and in-kind gifts such as school materials and books can support a circle. Financial giving through this website will open once the payment route and accounting controls are confirmed.

Work with Us

Partner organisations and local groups can help prepare circles and connect children to school pathways.

No gift may change which child can join or what a child must do. Contact info@benchmatesfoundation.org to volunteer, offer a venue, discuss a partnership or bring a circle to your state.
