First time using The Point?
This campaign has a tipping point -- you pledge money now, but you’re only charged if the total pledges reach $2,500.
This way, you know your participation will make a difference.
See how else you can make something happen on The Point.

My wife and I run edurelief, a small, grassroots non-profit organization who’s goal is to get kids back into school in Mongolia where they are dropping out by the thousands (see edurelief.org for details). In 2006 we helped 525 kids return to school, in 2007 more than 600. We’re planning on moving to Mongolia for a number of years to establish longer term, sustainable projects that will allow these communities to keep their kids in school themselves through community support and programs.
Neither of us receive a salary or living stipend from edurelief and find our living elsewhere through personal donations and support. It costs $1250 per person for one way tickets to Mongolia. If you can help us get there, we’ll take care of the rest.
Jonathan and Marielle
