More Kids?

by

Do you have plans on sponsoring more?

I have promised myself that I will not sponsor any more children (although that is the same promise I made when I only had four)! I think I’ll stick with my five for now, and use any additional money to send to the various projects I support. Apart from the money that I sent to the Chitima Health Centre, I have also sent $1′000 to Kantet which was used to build a classroom for Kantet’s school and buy cows for his family, and a further $800 which was used to buy spare parts for a generator for the whole community to use and some goats for Kantet’s family.

About Global Poverty Monitor

Poverty. Famine. War. It's all around us, in the news, the papers and on every second documentary you see. But what is the real truth? Are things really as bad as we're told - or are they worse? And what really can be done? Some people think believe the only way to help is to donate money to large relief comporations, and let them decide where it is best spent. Others prefer a more personal approach - choosing which projects and causes to support. But are we really in a position to make such decisions? How do we determine who is needy and who isn't? Read about these issues and more from someone who is just as confused as the rest of us, but who is determined to find out.
