CHILD SPONSORSHIP
Dear Sponsor/Donor,
Thank you for your interest in sponsoring a child here in Uganda. Needy and orphaned children can embark on a new life and make a difference in the world due to your generous donation/support
We have two Sponsorship Programs for the children in our care
|
1. Direct sponsorship: Sponsors may choose to sponsor an individual child. This sponsorship would include enough money for food, accommodation and education. We do recommend that our direct sponsors create an ongoing, long-term relationship with the child. We have over 40 children on our waiting list who are looking for sponsors; many are orphans and all of them live in situations in which caregivers cannot afford education. Please let us know if you are interested in sponsoring one of the children  |
2. Common Basket: Sponsors may choose to send money to a ‘common account’ which is not attached to a particular child. As a sponsor, you are welcome to name the area or project for which you would like the donation to be used. We recommend the Common Basket for those who can not commit to full time sponsorship at this time.
Current projects (2009) include;
- Building a chicken farm to generate income and sustainability.
- Solar Battery to supplement the one we already use to power the main Volset Residence (for children, volunteers and support staff).
- Supporting the development of the “Future Diplomats Education Centre”
- Bicycles for the PLWHA volunteers so they can do outreach in surrounding villages
In either case, you will be up-dated on the progress of your donation. You will also be added to our list of periodical communication and up-dates.
Any funds sent to VOLSET will be receipted, and acknowledgment with a letter sent to the sponsor/donor.
