Orphan and vulnerable children’s education

A full school year for a child who has lost the people who would have paid for it.

The challenge

What families face

For many orphaned children, school is a dream out of reach. With no parent to support them they miss school, go without uniforms or stationery, and grow up without the tools to break the cycle of poverty.

Left unsupported, they face a higher risk of exploitation, illiteracy and emotional hardship.

Our approach

How we work on it, together

Our Orphan and Vulnerable Education grant makes sure a sponsored child can attend school and thrive there. We work closely with schools, caregivers and communities so that every sponsored child has the footing to succeed, academically, socially and emotionally.

Each sponsored child receives:

  • Full school fees
  • School uniform and shoes
  • Stationery and learning materials
  • Emotional support through a caring network

What your gift does

Where your money goes

R12,000 sponsors a child’s whole school year, including food, accommodation, medical care and other essentials. Your sponsorship provides:

  • A stable place to learn
  • Academic support and resources
  • A sense of belonging and safety
  • A real chance at the future they want

Sponsor a child. Let no orphan be left behind.
