Send an Orphan Children to School
HISTORY: In 2014 we began to consider alternatives to serving orphaned children beyond bringing them to an orphanage. As it were, we discovered that in the Southern Province of Zambia where we already served, and in the DR Congo, there was a large number of orphaned children not attending school because the extended families could not provide the resources needed. These children were being adequately cared for within the family unit, but resources weren't available to enroll these children in school.
We started this effort in December 2014 working with three schools to impact 230 children. In 2025, our Education Initiative will be limited to the children who are supported directly through this fundraising effort. 1,000's of orphan children are waiting for assistance to attend school.
OBJECTIVE: To provide an opportunity for orphaned children to continue their education by providing school uniforms, shoes, a backpack, schoolbooks, and other materials needed. You can help in breaking the cycle of poverty for these children while impacting their families and communities.
BUDGET: Based on current commitments and partners, our funding need is $11,000 for our Education Initiative to equip to send 250 orphan children to school in Zambia. These funds are needed in January since this is when the school year begins in the countries where we serve.
