The cost of the 6,800-square-foot plot, including registration fees, is $24,500.

Donate to purchase land and build a school and community support services building in the village. Currently the Open Hands Education Trust's programs, including the school and women's programs, are being held in a building which is borrowed from a generous community member on a temporary basis.

Having a purpose-built building would allow for expanded educational programs such as increasing the number of students who can attend classes, providing a school library and computer lab, increasing the options for job-training skills for women and older girls, and offering free Basic English classes for adult villagers, so that their job opportunities can improve. (Jobs are available the tourist industry in Bodhgaya, a nearby larger town - but English is required.)
