The wonderful feeling of being
loved by a Christian friend that he or she has not met, but
who cares enough to be a sponsor.
The opportunity to attend school. Only 15% of
the children in rural Haiti attend school, and fewer than 25%
of adult Haitians are literate.
A uniform, books and supplies for school. Things
that many children can only dream about.
The first 1/3rd of the fees will go to the school
to cover school fees, uniform, shoes, books and pencils etc.
The next 1/3rd will be invested into a Family
Empowement Programme enabling the family to purchase
livestocks such as goats, chickens, pigs or a cow. This will not
only assist with feeding the family but educate the children in
self sufficiency.US $30 will be invested into a BioSand
Water Filter to provide clean water per household.
The last 1/3rd will go towards funding the After
School Club which is being established at the local
Restoration Ministries Haiti church in Morne Oge. This
will include an afternoon feeding programme and a child educational,
character building evangelical teaching programme.
