Help finish Honeycomb’s doors and windows so children can finally walk in 🚪🪟🗝️

Thinking Huts holds Candid’s highest Platinum Seal of Transparency 🌕⛲—a distinction earned by fewer than 1% of U.S. nonprofits—so donors at any level can see how their gifts turn into long‑term impact. We were selected for Yale University’s Tsai CITY accelerator in our startup phase, and that venture‑building support helped shape the systems and discipline behind our work today. We still operate with the leanness of a startup: a two‑person core team pitching brand partnerships and running fundraising outreach so every dollar—whether $5, $500, or more—stays focused on the schools themselves.

Once our 3D printer arrived in Madagascar and we received permission from the Council of Ministers to move through customs and transport it to its final destination, we were able to move forward in Q3 of 2025. We've implemented our technician and construction team training program, and—together with our Pollinators and monthly giving community Ambrosia 🍯🥗—have brought this campus to 98% completion.

What remains is a clear, time‑sensitive gap we are aiming to close within the upcoming week:
– Installing windows
– Delivering artisan‑carved doors by truck from a village where woodcarving skills have been passed down for generations (with no in‑kind transport sponsor)
– Repurchasing wooden beams that decayed when construction had to push through the rainy season after a missed spring milestone

These anchors of transparency and lean operations have carried this campus almost all the way. We now need a higher volume of new people to step in—at any amount they’re able, individually or as companies—to finish these last pieces so children can walk through those handmade doors into classrooms built to stand for decades. ✨

To make a donation, please tap the button above and select the amount you would like to give at. Your gift today helps complete this gap within the week and opens real classrooms for students who are waiting. 🌱
