Supporting Education of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC)

Status: In progress
Time needed: 
Two weeks or more
Step: 
1

Our communities in the recent past suffered from rebel insurgencies and of recent HIV/A[DS has had its toll leaving behind a very impoverised people and many orphans and vulnerable children. The only hope for thess children and community as a whole is in education. In our country today, quality education is becoming a preserve of the rich. Some of our best students can not join good secondary schools because of inability to pay fees. So we totally miss out from the national picture in terms of good training, skills and jobs. So the community is destined to remain in the cycle of poverty. We have an idea of sponsoring six best students gender balanced annually. We would appreciate your support to help us develop a sponsorship plan for our village.

HI Stanley,
does PACODET already have the funds for the scholarship or did you need to first raise these funds?
Also- have you already got an idea of who will receive these scholarships or will there be an application process?

Hi Stanley,

I commend you for your dedication to educating the children of your community. I agree education is key to battling poverty. Without financial support from many venues, I could not have gone to college.

When my parish began fundraising, we discovered that we needed to show potential contributors our written plan for how we would use the funds before they would consider giving us money.

Do you know of programs that are similar to the one you ?Please let me know and if there aren't any local programs for you to use as a model, I will research for such programs.

Are there local business willing to contribute funds? Also, are there any multinational corporations or nonprofits working in your area that might contribute?

Take care,
Tom
