HOW IT WORKS?

  • Each child will have up to ten sponsors at $30 month, for a total monthly sponsorship of $300.
  • Child sponsors, will receive a special invitation to join their child’s individual facebook group. We call it the FAMILY ROOM!!!
  • Through the FAMILY ROOM (each child’s facebook group), the sponsors will receive photos, messages, and updates from their child through our FAMILY ROOM stewards.
  • It is our vision to see the FAMILY ROOM become more than a group of financial sponsors, but a meaningful, engaging, prayerful support system.
  • We encourage each sponsor to help build their child’s FAMILY ROOM through their own social networks. Invite a friend or family member to join your child’s FAMILY ROOM today!!!
  • An individual may sponsor a child completely at $300 a month by filling up all ten, $30 commitments or in part by choosing however many commitments desired. With each $30 sponsorship comes an invitation to the FAMILY ROOM. 
  • An individual with multiple sponsorships would have the option of sending the prospective number of invitations to friends and family members to join him/her in interacting as a support team through the family room.

Why $300 a month?

Many of us are familiar with child sponsorship programs where a $35 sponsorship covers the entire monthly need. While many of these organizations do great work, the vast majority of them do not sponsor orphans…they subsidize families in crisis. We are set apart in that we care for children without any parental support. We are underwriting every financial need of the abandoned or orphaned child as they are brought into the Hands and Feet family.

After six years of caring for orphans at a high level of excellence, we have determined that our monthly cost is approximately $270 per child, per month. The $270 will cover the cost of food, utilities, healthcare, school, and our Haitian child care staff. The remaining thirty dollars, or 10% of the monthly sponsorship, will be directed toward our children’s DREAM FUND. The DREAM FUND is our savings account, set aside for our children’s future financial jump-start. The DREAM FUND will be managed as one investment account benefiting all of our children upon their graduation from our program.
