Nice fundraising campaign from Building Tomorrow targeting the American public. Fill out the form to calculate the costs of you educational years.

The smart part of the campaign are the options after the calculation: fundraise or donate.
With the fundraising option visitors are ask to print bricks and sell them to schoolmates or friends. Building Tomorrow can build a school with 24,000 bricks.

With the donate option visitors can choose how many bricks, desks or chalkboards they want to donate.

Building Tomorrow (BT) is an international social-profit organization encouraging philanthropy among young people by raising awareness and funds to build and support educational infrastructure projects for underserved children in sub-Saharan Africa.
