Sponsoring

Up and running

To keep the orphanage up and running, we need money. This money we get from wellwishers and volunteers (see volunteers). Wellwishers are people like yourselves, who donate money to Upendo Children's Centre, sometimes even a monthly contribution. This money from volunteers and wellwishers we use for all daily expences. It pays for the house rent, schoolfees, food, salaries of our staff in Kenya and other things like clothes, schooluniforms, medicine, a monthly outing or any other item you an imagine that is needed in a house with lots of children!

Sponsor a child

At this moment there are ove 20 children living in UCC. Most of the children go to primary school, which is paid by the Kenyan governement. When children reach the age of 13/14 they go to boardingschool, which is not free of charge. Boardingschool costs around 100 euros per month per child. We want all of our children to be educated because they are the future, and education is the future too! So yo can make a difference in helping us to give these children a chance to a beautifull educated future.

You can donate monthly to a specific child. Just name the child in your donation. Furthermore do the children like to receive mail or little presents and they love to sent you drawings!

Sponsor the new house

As you can read on this website are we planning to built a new house, a bigger and better house! If you want to help us achieve our dream, please do so!

Donating

In the netherlands we are registerd with the Chamber of commerce, and also in Kenya we are in the progress of registration. We have a bankaccount in the Netherlands, where all donations come together. From the Netherlands it is transferred to our Kenyan account to cover all monthly expenses. Furtermore we try to save money to fullfill our dream, the construction of our own house!

Stichting Upendo Children's Centre is a registered non-profit organization in the Netherlands (ANBI instelling), so donations are tax-deductible within the Dutch tax system.
