Afterschool Tutoring for Children at Risk
💕 Local Donation: Bulgaria
Bulgaria is a beautiful country, one that I’ve been coming back to for the last 3 years. I love the mountains, the cultural pride, and the cities steeped in history. It is a joy to be able (in a small way) to help support the next generation of Bulgarians through increased literacy.
Program: The Homework Club provides after-school supervision, reliable and safe childcare, and tutoring for 25 children at risk of dropping out of school.
During the year, as many as 750 supervised classes will help children complete homework assignments, read books and novels, engage in creative writing activities, work on math problems, and study for tests.
Challenge: In Bulgaria, children of families struggling within lower socioeconomic circumstances are at risk of leaving school early. The Homework Club is an after-school tutoring program that aims to keep children in school and raise their academic performance. The goals are to provide a safe space for the children to study and to spark a lifelong interest in learning.
Organization: ReachOut.BG is a nongovernmental organization that provides a mobile learning and care center for children and teenagers who are deprived of family and parental care. The organization is a member of the National Network for Children and is licensed by the State agency for child protection.
Donation: On behalf of our Nomad Life community, I gave a donation of $44: $40 to cover a tutor’s fee for 2 classes, plus $4 to cover administrative fees.

As I travel, I make micro donations (under $100) to community organizations tackling specific local needs. Think spaying and neutering programs for stray animals, beach clean-ups, and school supplies for kids.
