Objective:
Commitment of the USA volunteers to help ease the burdens of the poverty stricken orphans in the Great Maseno Area of Kenya, East Africa.
Who will qualify as a sponsoring unit?
Someone in the USA who
- Commits to be involved in the program for a minimum of two years (24 months)
- Commits to writing a monthly note of encouragement to the child (we will collect these and send them off in one mailing to cut down on postage cost)
- Commits to pay $20 a month for the sponsorship of the child
- Sponsoring unit can be a single person or may be a family unit.
What can a sponsor expect?
The program will make an effort to get a picture of the child for the sponsor with a brief history of his/her situation. The program will make a great effort to notify the sponsoring family unit of the child’s report on a regular basis including the health of the child, and if the child remains in school, how the schoolwork is going, etc.
What with the $20 pay for?
These funds will pay toward simple meal elements in effort to avoid malnutrition. Some funds will be used to purchase uniforms, school fees, or school notebooks required to attend the local schools if the child is of school age. Some funds may be used for basic medical needs, hygienic needs, clean water systems and other items to make the child's life more healthy. This program will attempt to use only 10% of its funds for administrative cost on the Kenya side of the program like bus fare for the monies to be distributed, and the children to be monitored. (People in these areas lack private sources/vehicles to get around but instead walk or use the public buses or rental bikes. Our Kenya volunteer coordinators will also need to travel to Kisumu to pick up the funds to distribute.)
