FOUNDING 100 CAMPAIGN PAGE – Invest & Protect the First 100 Children
What Is Founding 100?
The Founding 100 Campaign represents the foundational expansion phase of Camala
Foundation’s Education Access & Child Protection Program in Guinea-Bissau.
We are building responsible capacity to support up to 100 vulnerable children by 2028 through structured, phased growth.
This is not rapid expansion.
It is disciplined institution-building.
Why 100?
Our partner school serves more than 400 children.
Camala Foundation currently supports 15 children within that community.
The Founding 100 Campaign establishes a scalable framework to responsibly expand support while maintaining:
- Financial stability
- Safeguarding standards
- Monitoring systems
- U.S.-based oversight
- Transparent reporting
One hundred children represents a meaningful, manageable scale for sustainable growth.
We do not expand based on emotion.
We expand based on capacity.
Phase 1 — 2026
15 children supported
Program stabilization and reporting systems strengthened.
Phase 2 — 2026–2027
Expansion to up to 35 children
Enhanced oversight, recurring donor base growth, structured monitoring
Phase 3 — 2027–2028
Expansion to up to 100 children
Full safeguarding integration, strengthened reporting systems, long-term sustainability planning.
Expansion occurs only when funding and oversight capacity are secured.
