Here are some of the projects covered by the children's fund:
Bethshalom Boys Home, Sri Lanka
Living with 12 boys, life gets a bit hairy sometimes. Justin and Roshani set up the boys home 5 years ago with nothing but their faith in God and a desire in their hearts. It has often been quite a challenge with neighbours claiming they were training the boys to fight in the civil war (which is now over). But working closely with the local official and the social services, Justin and Roshani have become a success story.
Jubilee society, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
Through this programme we ensure that 45 Children are able to go to school and be educated.
Our Child Sponsorship Programme is primarily designed to ensure that children attend school and receive a good education. Although school education is free, many children cannot attend school, because their families are extremely poor and cannot afford to buy items such as school teaching materials.
New Beginnings Children’s Home, Tirana Albania
This is a home for 10 young people, boys and girls from varied backgrounds. It is reputed to be one of the best children’s homes in the country, with no reported cases of abuse amongst the children and the staff, which is almost unheard of in Albania. The standard of conditions, nation wide, are very poor within children’s homes and the New Beginnings home is a model of the standards their social services are aiming towards across the nation.
RAFA Home, Delhi, India
This is the home of 7 boys who have HIV/Aids. Many of the boys were found on the streets as young children, with their parents either dead or their whereabouts unknown.
A house full of boys is never quiet or boring is it? The 7 boys are all home schooled with 3 full time teachers. All of the boys are achieving high grades in their school work and their health issues seem not to get in the way of their education.
Children with Hope, Huánuco, Peru
Currently we are supporting 8 children, who have all recently been reunited with family or have be re-housed with local church families.
For years the Children with Hope programme operated from a children’s home in Huánuco, Peru. In 2009 the owner of the house wanted it back for his use, this meant that we had to act fast to find an appropriate alternative. We looked into sending them to another larger home and supporting them financially through another organisation, this wasn’t cost effective as their costs were higher than our own.
Shishya, Dehra Dun, India
The initial intention was to serve orphans and children whose family situation debarred them from a healthy and happy childhood.
A project emerged as teenage boys began arriving at the McRae’s small apartment in search of help and family. With the Kind help from grants and donations, a campus has been established on the outskirts of Dehra Dun since 1981.
