Contributions to our General Fund help us to implement new programs, improve on existing programs, and to provide for the children that we serve. Gifts to this fund also aid us in meeting new and evolving needs that arise for families and the communities in which we work.
Our Feeding Programs provide food for children who would otherwise go hungry so that they can be alert at school and ready to learn. This important fund supports our projects around the world so they can offer healthy meals to children daily and food items for them to take home on the weekends.
Back to school is one of the toughest times for children in need. Not having new outfits or school supplies to start the school year off right can diminish their confidence and make it difficult for them to focus. Contributions to our Back to School Fund make it possible to give children a little extra for a better beginning, so that they feel good and are ready to learn.
Our Hope In Action Fund supports children in their health, educational, and livelihood needs. Contributions are used in emergency situations, like when natural disasters strike, in times of extreme hardship due to health challenges, and when families are unable to pay for school activities for their children.
Donations to our COVID-19 Response Fund will be used to provide food and emergency supplies to the children in our program who are in immediate need during this uncertain time.
We add new children to our program every day, and finding enough sponsors for all of them is one of our greatest challenges. The global need is so profound that some children wait months for a sponsor. Gifts made to our Shared Hope Fund provide immediate assistance to children awaiting sponsorship.
Donations go to support feeding programs in the U.S., such as our backpack feeding program, which gives children in Eastern Kentucky food to take home on the weekends and food in the summer when school is not in, and they are not receiving meals on a regular basis.
The purpose of our International Feeding Programs Fund is to feed enrolled children who would otherwise go hungry so that they can be alert at school and ready to learn. This fund supports programs in the Philippines, Kenya, and Ethiopia to buy grains, meats, vegetables, and cooking supplies to feed children.
Donations to our Warm Clothing Fund allow our coordinators to purchase boots, coats, hats, scarves, and mittens for our sponsored children living in particularly harsh weather, such as in Detroit, or Eastern Kentucky. You can make a huge difference in the life of a child by contributing to this fund today!
In Kenya and Ethiopia, children need mosquito nets to protect them from mosquito-borne illnesses so that they’ll be healthy enough to attend school. Each year, we purchase thousands of nets, thanks to donations to our Mosquito Net Fund, which we distribute to our sponsored children and their families.
