Gift for the future

Almost five years ago a baby arrived at Home of Hope underweight and with little chance of survival. Her mother had died the day after giving birth to her and her father could not afford formula to feed the tiny baby.

On the 1st of June, this little miracle baby celebrates her fifth birthday! Her birthday coincides with International Children's Day, so to celebrate her survival and the accomplishments of all of her fellow friends and family at the Home of Hope Children's Mission we raise funds each year for an honorary birthday gift for all the children.

This year we'd like to raise funds to provide scholarships to graduating students to go to Vocational Training or College after completing secondary school so that as many of our children can have the best start in life when they leave us. Our aim is to raise orphaned and other vulnerable children to their full independence and become contributing members of our community.

It costs $240 to sponsor one child per year for the Vocational Training Course at Home of Hope. We would love to raise enough funds to sponsor at least four students to continue on with their education.
