Feeding a Family of 60 Children

Healthier, Happier Kids

World’s Children provides the basics–food, clothing, shelter, and education through our child sponsorship program. We have also started a program called Sponsor an Orphanage. This program got its start because food prices are always rising, but not all of our sponsors are able to raise their sponsorship fees to offset the growing costs.

Eggs to feed 60 kids for 3 days

This program provides funding for additional high quality food for the children. Currently this project helps one home that relies solely on World’s Children for its financial support: Balavikasita Orphanage.

Vegetables for 60 kids to last a week

The results of this project have been very positive. The children are happier and healthier, and the administrators are spending less time and money on medical issues. The children are also doing better in school.

Dear Donors,

We are really grateful and thankful to you for your kind support and help for our children at the home by meeting their special nutrition needs. Before their energy levels were usually low. But, as we are now getting your support to meet the extra needs, we are able to provide milk, yogurt, eggs, fruits, and snacks to all the children living at the home. They get their snacks twice during the day—once at school and once after they come back from school.

They are all happy to have this special and nutritious food. This is giving them energy to play as well as focus on studies and stay healthy. We have very less cases of ill health in the past year. This is made possible only because you support us financially.

I am personally thankful and grateful to you for your help and always remember you in my prayers.

With love and gratitude,
Uttam Kumar Songa

Note from Orphanage Sponsor

Dear David:

Thank you for taking the time to show me the results of my humble donation in improving conditions for the children at the Balavikasita Orphanage, and for including the nice thank-you letter from Mr. Kumar. It was especially helpful and gratifying to see actual images of the accomplished work. [Photos like the ones above were sent to the donors who sponsor this orphanage.]

You surely have many things begging for your time, but we donors are quite grateful that you treat us so attentively and kindly. May God bless you and your staff in all your noble efforts.

Respectfully,
Don

With your help, we hope to expand this program to supplement the diets of many more children in need of a nutritional boost.
