Helping People

Compassion International: a faith based child sponsorship program. The funds provide educational opportunities, health care, lessons in life skills. You may write to your sponsor child as often as you wish, and you will receive regular letters and reports from your child. If you wish, you can send a monetary birthday and Christmas gift. Also you may send extra to help the family or the project center the child is enrolled in.

Samaritan's Purse: a faith-based program headed by Franklin Graham. They are an effective means of reaching and helping people in desperate situations worldwide. Programs include World Medical Mission, Children's Heart Project, HIV/AIDS education, emergency disaster help and community development programs.

Operation Christmas Child: A program of Samaritan's Purse. Individuals can pack a shoebox filled with a variety of gifts such as school supplies, hygiene items and toys. The boxes are then shipped to distribution packing centers (check the web site for drop off locations near you) and then sent world wide to children in poverty situations. Last year boxes were sent to 7.5 million children in 95 countries. It's a great program to involve children in.

The Nosim Initiative: a grassroots organization whose aim is to bring aid to the Maasai people of Kenya. Projects include providing school uniforms so children can attend school, a child sponsorship program (and if you sponsor a girl you can help stop the terrible mutilation of female circumcision), family crisis intervention (helps to meet the basic needs of a family), a school building project and a water well project that will bring clean water to an entire village.
