What We Do
Our Mission
Sponsor a Village School
$30/month or $360/year helps sponsor a village school and its children
Your monthly gift plays a vital role in supporting an entire school community—especially children in greatest need. While this amount does not cover the full cost of operating the school, it allows us to provide essential support in partnership with others who are also investing in these villages. Together, your contributions help provide:-
School supplies and uniforms for every student
-
Nutritious meals for children who may otherwise go without
-
Teacher support—including training, resources, and salaries where needed
-
Improvements to classrooms and school buildings
-
Case-by-case medical assistance for students when needed
Why Village Sponsorship?
After installing clean water wells in these communities, we noticed something incredible—school attendance doubled. Children were no longer missing class due to waterborne illness, and girls who once spent hours fetching water are now in school, learning and thriving. This is about more than just education. It’s about restoring time, health, dignity, and hope to entire communities—starting with the next generation.Want to Know More?

Prisca Peace Project
At Le Pont International, we are empowering women to transform their lives and communities through the Prisca Peace Project. Currently, 100 hardworking women have applied for and qualified to receive microloans to grow their businesses. These women include seamstresses, cosmetologists, shop owners selling groceries, spices, produce, and other goods.
The program is structured with an 8-month repayment period, and we are proud to share that we’ve achieved a remarkable 100% repayment rate. Over the course of three loan cycles, we have seen incredible success:
For the original 25 women who repaid their loans on time, we were able to triple their loan amounts, enabling even greater growth for their businesses.
In the second round, we doubled the loan amounts for another 25 women.
We have since expanded the program to include 50 women from the villages where our Living Water Wells have been established.
These women are dedicated and hardworking, and their determination inspires us daily. Madame Awouse oversees the Prisca Peace Project, providing essential training in accounting, marketing, and business development to ensure each participant has the tools they need for long-term success.
Through your support, the Prisca Peace Project is creating sustainable change—one woman, one family, and one community at a time.
Imagine if you can…
Your elementary-age daughter walking hours daily to fetch water instead of being in school. She gets up every morning to the same desperate routine. Her hope is on hold. In Africa, girls under the age of 15 are twice as likely as boys to be responsible for getting water for the family. To pursue a hopeful future, she and her family need water…every day.Our Living Water Wells project bring together the three goals of LPI: children are educated, churches are equipped, and communities are empowered.
$15,000 puts a Living Water Wells in a village, providing clean water, vegetable gardening, fish and poultry production, jobs for a community, and a strategic center for community development.
Equip The Church
Our passion at LPI is to fulfill the great commission of Jesus to make disciples of all nations. We do this by training community transformers. These community leaders oversee and maintain the wells as a base for community outreach. The church thus becomes a strategic center of community development.
$2,250 purchases a motorcycle for a pastor-missionary to reach remote areas with the gospel.

are sponsor a student!
Le Pont is working with the three schools to provide incentive-based scholarships for those students who can not pay the tuition. Each student receiving a scholarship is carefully evaluated by the administration and teachers to ensure the student is committed and that the family of the student is in need of assistance.
Your gift will provide:
- Tuition
- Medical Checkups
- Uniforms
- School Supplies
- Monthly groceries
When you sponsor one or more of these students you are making a high impact investment in the future of these children and in Africa.
We are preparing
to build 6 new wells
before 2023!
Over 40% of sub-Saharan Africa’s 783,000,000 people live without access to clean drinking water. Many are forced to carry heavy jugs of water for miles. For others, the prospect of clean water is simply nonexistent. In partnership with churches, businesses, and individuals, Le Pont has funded 3 Living Water Wells!
We’ve only just begun!

In Africa, girls under the age of 15 are twice as likely as boys to be responsible for fetching water for the family. To pursue a hopeful future, she and her family need water…every day.
Throughout sub-Saharan Africa, people are at constant risk of contracting a disease or parasites from their water. For many, drinking water is typically found in infested streams and ponds, causing diseases such as typhoid, cholera, dysentery, and diarrhea. In sub-Saharan Africa, over 315,000 children die annually – victims of these water-borne illnesses.
Pastors across Africa
are suffering. We
need to respond.
We want to provide every Pastor in Togo with a relief package, consisting of food for a month and a small cash gift. With your help, we have already distributed these parcels to 250 pastors in need!
Our goal is to expand the relief project to include a total of 1000 pastors. To do this, we need your generous donations.
The time has come to minister to perhaps the most neglected and overlooked segment of the African society during this time – Pastors and their families.
Churches have been closed. Members are without jobs. People have not been able to “bring their tithes into the storehouse”. Pastors and families were passed over for government aid.
As we shows these pastors “double honor,” God will honor us. Thank you for your partnership in the Gospel from the first day to now.
