Creating change for generations to come.
I Pay Ten a Month (iPTaM) is a Children’s Education and Housing Fund for Micah Projects that aims to create generational change by providing scholarships and housing to children and families who have experienced hardship or trauma, resulting in financial hardship and socio-economic disadvantage.
Our vision is to create a community of kind and caring givers who together are providing the gift of education and housing.
Assisting with educational costs for a child to attend a school of their choice provides the opportunity to transform the course of a child’s life and create a 'pass it on' effect that could continue to touch and change the lives of the recipient's family and community for generations to come.
There’s power in numbers.
IPTAM IS A FUND BY MICAH PROJECTS, A LEADING NOT FOR PROFIT ORGANISATION WITH OVER 25 YEARS EXPERIENCE HELPING DISADVANTAGED, MARGINALISED AND VULNERABLE PERSONS.
Micah identifies local recipients for its scholarships and housing funding and provides the ongoing support services to the recipients and their families.
