Sponsor A Child

SPONSOR A CHILD Together we can make a difference!

Our Child sponsorship program is designed to help Orphaned & Vulnerable Children (OVC’s) as a result of HIV/AIDS, past civil armed conflicts and other health related factors. As of 2019, Uganda was host to 2.7 Million Orphans. For as little as US$ 25 per month, you can sponsor a Child. The US$ 25 monthly donation, provide for a child’s school fees, scholastic materials, feeding, clothes, shoes, school uniform, medical care, and participation in professional trauma counseling programs. A child who does not go to school is a child who goes through life bearing a monstrous burden.

A child destined to live a life impoverished in every way; in spirit, in health, in bare necessities. Though building more orphanages is an effective way to care for the ever increasing number of orphans due to the AIDS epidemic and un-ending wars in Africa, we believe that care provided in institutional settings often fails to meet the developmental and long-term needs of Orphaned and Vulnerable children.

Further, the costs associated with providing basic care to orphans sky rocket when salaries must be paid, buildings constructed and maintained, food prepared, and services provide. Conducted cost comparisons indicate the ratio of operating costs for an orphanage to be 14 times higher than those of Community Based Care & Support OVC programs and projects.

The AIDS epidemic has left millions of children orphaned, without hesitation or complaint, Africa’s grandmothers have stepped in to care for them. It is estimated that between 40-60% of orphans live in grandmother-headed households
