Simama Circle
Together, We Rise.
What is the Simama Circle?
The Simama Circle is Alabaster International’s community of monthly givers, a collective of people who believe that real, lasting change starts when we stand together.
In Swahili, simama means “to stand.” And that’s exactly what Simama Circle members do: they stand with women, children, and families across East Africa — providing the steady, reliable support that keeps our work going all year long.
Why Monthly Giving Matters
Monthly donors form the backbone of our work, helping us plan for the long term and respond quickly in times of crisis. Your monthly gift allows us to:
Equip female farmers with tools and training to grow food, build climate resilience, and economic stability
Provide children in conflict zones with school supplies, books, and safe learning spaces
Deliver mobile healthcare to remote areas where medical care is out of reach
Your Impact
When you join the Simama Circle, you’re not just giving — you’re standing for:
Famine relief
Education for vulnerable children
Access to healthcare in rural communities
Every gift makes a difference. Every month.
