40 minute eBay auction

In Zambia a lesson lasts for 40 minutes. Will you auction 40 minutes of your time on eBay to fundraise for Simakakata Community School, in Zambia?

You choose the 40 minute activity. We sell the experience on eBay. You could meet a fan for 40 minutes, give them a tour of a film set, play a private 40 minute gig, take them for a pint, and so on.

The money raised will buy raw materials for the final two classrooms and six teachers' houses. The community will build the school themselves. Later in the year we'll visit the school and show you the money in action.

What can we offer you?

A classroom or teachers' house named in your honour

230 children attend Simakakata Community School in Zambia. The school needs two more classrooms (the community have already built four) and six teachers' houses. Each building costs £6,500. If you fully fundraise an entire building you can have it named after yourself and/or the highest bidder.

See your money in action

Later in the year we will return to the school to show you how the money raised is being spent. Click here to see the progress which has been made so far. If you fully fund a building we would be delighted to discuss opportunities to visit the school.

How do I get involved?

Send an email to our founder Steve: steve at learnasone dot org to say you'd like to auction 40 minutes of your time. If you have an idea of what 'experience' you'd like to auction then include that too. Please include your/your agents contact details. We'll take as much of the admin off your hands as we can.
