Visit the SOS Childrens Villages Website

This UK charity is the world's largest orphan and abandoned children charity.

Their main role is helping children whose parents are not there for them. They may be AIDS orphans, street children, child soldiers or children orphaned by war, poverty or natural disasters. They give these children a mother and a family in a home within an SOS Children's village. In places where there is a high rate of child abandonment, they run programmes to help strengthen vulnerable families and keep them together.


Visit the Abaana Organisation Website 

 
Abaana is a charity run by four full-time workers, two part-time  and many volunteers, for the benefit of less privileged people in Africa. The word "Abaana" comes from a language found in the country of Uganda (East Africa) and means "children.” Most of their work is geared towards children in Africa, but not exclusively. Abaana was set up in January 1998 and aims to show young people that through sacrificing a little time and money, they can also get involved in making a difference. Abaana hopes to share the love of God in a practical way with those who need it most. Young people and some not so young take part in sponsored events, barbecues and fun nights to raise money to support the worthwhile causes. All support is welcome no matter how young or old you are.


 Visit the Kingscare Website 

The KINGSCARE Child Sponsorship project is designed to ensure that children in developing countries are able to attend school and receive a good education. The children come from extremely poor families. Many have only one parent - some have lost a parent to disease or civil war.

Many children cannot attend school because their families cannot afford to buy items such as school uniforms, shoes and exercise books. Without these, children will be sent home and soon drop out of the system.
