YTD Raised: £1,743.00
(UK, 1069574) The Kindu Trust is a UK and Ethiopian registered organisation dedicated to improving the livelihoods of children and their families in Ethiopia. Since 1998, we have worked alongside community stakeholders so more children are becoming healthier, are succeeding at school and are being offered brighter prospects for their futures. At the centre of our work is our Child Sponsorship Programme. Through financial, medical and educational support, the Child Sponsorship Programme is aimed at improving the lives of poor Ethiopian children from their early childhood to their young adulthood. This enables sponsored families to afford food, water, fuel and shelter, and most importantly, it goes a long way in helping to ensure that the children do not have to work to supplement their household income. Since 1998, we have worked alongside community stakeholders so more children are becoming healthier, are succeeding at school and are being offered brighter prospects for their futures. Additionally, we administer and manage several important projects designed to benefit our sponsored children and families, ranging from community recreation activities to income-generating initiatives. You can find out more about our history, projects and achievements on our website. www.kindutrust.org Thank you for supporting us to affect such positive change in the lives of children and their families in Ethiopia!
The Guatemalan Families Association

YTD Raised: £1,695.00The Guatemalan Families Association (GFA) is a charity for families living in Britain who have adopted or are in the process of adopting children from Guatemala. Our primary goal is to support internationally adopted Guatemalan children to connect with their Guatemalan roots. We also support two Guatemalan NGO's. The history of violence against indigenous populations, natural disasters, poverty, and illiteracy can best be dealt with in partnership with Guatemalans. Behrhorst projects promote self-sufficiency, foster community development, and enhance the education and health of people working to make a better life for their children and communities. Pueblo a Pueblo projects respond to the devastating poverty and deprivation in targeted indigenous villages. Projects work to build the community’s ability to thrive on its own while achieving health, food security, and education for local families. Many GFA families have visited the villages where these two charities are working. They have seen the difference our contributions make. Together, we will make the struggle to survive and be productive a little easier. Charity No: 1105241 Find out more Website http://www.gfa-uk.org/drupal/
