Become a Jacari Champion
Set up a regular donation today and you will be helping us to provide long-term support to refugee, asylum-seeking and migrant children who use English as an additional language.
A generous donor has offered to match fund donations, so they will go twice as far!
Meet Natalie and Kateryna
Kateryna fled the war in Ukraine with her family and arrived in the UK with no English. She started school in Bristol but couldn’t communicate with teachers or other pupils.
Jacari matched Kateryna to volunteer, Natalie, who is training to be a teacher at Bristol University and speaks Russian. Natalie has been working with Kateryna every week to build her confidence and language skills, helping her to settle in at school and adapt to life in the UK.
Natalie told us “There has been a massive improvement in her speaking and writing skills since we started working together. I can see she takes the lessons to heart and is committed to getting even better.”
Your donations help Jacari to recruit, train and support volunteers to tutor children like Kateryna. Receiving regular donations allows us to provide long-term support to build children's confidence and language skills and provide them with a mentor and friend who encourages a love of learning.
