Join hands with Loka for a Bright & Beautiful World!

Loka’s mission relies on the generosity of friends and donors to support our Small School with Big Dreams. Supporting Loka is investing in a Bright, Beautiful and Sustainable world where human bonds are close and care for our precious planet matters. Share ideas, resources and good wishes.

Sponsor a nutritious diet for students through Loka’s Fruit Everyday project. Suggested donation: € 60/$ 70 covers fruit once a week for a month for 90 students.

Loka’s students regularly plant trees on their school grounds and in the village to contribution to a green planet. Contributing towards 10 trees costs € 25/$ 30.

Consider supporting towards the infrastructure and expertise required for an innovative and creative education for Loka’s younger students and a Craftsmanship Course for older students to uplift their surroundings. Required funds in 2019-2021: € 150.000/$ 170000, which includes:

€ 7.500/$ 8,500 for a classroom (5)

€ 10.000/$ 11,500 for a working space for the Craftmanship Course (6)
