Here's an example of what your gifts will do:
- $100 supports a NUTRITIOUS SCHOOL GARDEN for 50 children who also
learn practical farming skills so they can start a garden at home.
- $250 supports FOOD PACKAGES for 10 children for a school term,
particularly those with no parents at home. This support reduces their
vulnerability to exploitation when exchanging favors for food. Food
packages supplement vegetables from the school garden.
- $500 covers PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT and HIV PREVENTION programs for 10
children to deal with the grief and hopelessness associated with the
loss of their parents and family members, and to ensure they know how
to protect themselves from HIV.
- $1,000 supports visits by a SCHOOL NURSE to treat basic ailments for
200 children which, left untreated, can develop into full-scale
emergencies. Recently a child almost lost his leg due to a
simple infection that was left untreated for too long. Last month
alone, the Bantwana nurse treated 338 children in six schools - thats
more than the total number of children treated in these six schools in
the previous two years combined!
- $2,500 supports DURABLE, DEEP WELLS that ensure children have
clean drinking water, dramatically improving health and hygiene today
and for years to come.
- Gifts of $5000, $10,000, or more are also welcome and will be
immediately leveraged and put to work.
