Sustained Hope has a committee of
community members who evaluate children in the village who need help with daily
life expenses. After a child is targeted by the Committee for support Sustained
Hope looks to individuals and groups willing to help provide monthly support
for the needy children.
Once a child is supported the
welfare committee distributes the support to the children in need. A portion of
the money will be distributed to the family for daily needs the rest will be
kept accounted for by Sustained Hope to be used as needed for the supported child.
The money donated will be used
for:
- School fees
- Yearly Ghana Health insurance
- Clothing
- Nutrition needs
Sustained Hope is requesting
donations of $22 a month per child. Money can be given monthly, bi-monthly, or
yearly. Once a child is supported we hope to coordinate communication between
supporter and child.
As a supporter you can be assured
that all funds given in the name of a welfare child will be used for that
child.
If you would like to support one of these children, please email us at sustainedhope@hotmail.com
