Sponsor a child, assist a young man or woman in the tailoring school for two years, or give a grant to a social worker trainee for a year.
Presently we educate 240 children in primary, secondary or tertiary institutions.
Costs vary at each level and in each school.
The following analysis gives as accurate a sum as possible in 2013-2014
We usually try to match each child to an individual sponsor, or to any group e.g. a class of children, a group of
friends or a funding organization. Many of our friends who do not wish to take on a long commitment give a
"free donation" of any amount. This money is given to the organization to use at its discretion.
Running an organization with three departments, 25 staff, 240 sponsored children, 50 young men and women in a
tailoring school, a counsellor training institute, always requires money for overheads, maintenance, support of
sick staff or sick children and sometimes even for a party to celebrate life.
In case you decide to sponsor a child we will ask you to deposit your donation into one of our bank accounts
in Ireland, the UK, the USA or Germany. Registered boards with chartered accountants in different countries
manage these accounts. More detailed information will be mailed to you on request.
We are aware that sponsoring a child is a long term commitment requiring extensive financial input but there
are so many needs in our organisation that you may choose to assist us in other ways.
