Sponsoring a Child
Sponsoring a child is a wonderful opportunity to help a child to have a better future. You can also sponsor a child as a gift or give a donation to pay for school lunches or uniforms.
Sponsors receive a photo and information about the child they are sponsoring at the start of the school year. They receive an update letter during the year and, when possible, a letter from the child themselves at the end of the year.
How much does it cost?
For 2016, sponsorship prices are:
£38 to sponsor a child in Nursery-P2 for one year.
£45 to sponsor a child in P3-P6.
£60 to sponsor a child in P7
£135 to sponsor a child in Boarding Section
£5.50 for one school uniform.
£24 for school lunches for one year.
Where does my money go?
As I do all the organisation, administration and paperwork myself all money we receive goes directly to the school to pay for school fees, lunches, uniforms and extra support as required.
How long do I sponsor for?
We hope that sponsors can build a relationship with the child they are sponsoring by supporting them over a number of years however, we understand that circumstances change and we only ask for a minimum commitment of one year. After this time we write to sponsors to ask if they wish to continue sponsoring. Family situations in Uganda change too and sometimes children and their families move away from Bulenga. If this happens a sponsor's money is used to support another child in need.
I want to sponsor a child, what do I do next?
If you would like to sponsor a child or would like more information about sponsorship please contact me by emailing [email protected] and I will send you further information and a sponsorship form.
As the school year in Uganda begins in February sponsors will be matched with a child in February/March 2012.
