Sponsoring a Child Program Sponsorship through education Helping to feed a child with basic needs at home environment Help to rehabilitate a school drop out through skills training for school dropouts to enable them survive on their own Where do they attend school? How much is involved? What do I expect with my assistance? Is it worth it? Sponsorship through education Schooling in Kenya is not free. Although the government provides the schools with teachers, parents are expected to pay for tuition, buy school uniform, books, school construction and maintenance and other extras. Kenyan children despite all the poverty and its resultant hardships, like all other children of the world, have a quest to learn and attain good education to enable them become self-reliant in the future and help their families. Most of the vulnerable are the orphans whose parents have died or those from single - parent and poor families. In a country where mortality rate for both children and adults is high due to rampant poverty and the effects of the Aids pandemic, many children have been left to fend for themselves. Others from poor families cannot afford not only money to meet the most basic needs but have literally none for paying school fees. Without education, hope for a better future also diminishes. SIADIA BELIEVES: that helping these children with education will help break the viscous circle of poverty rather than leaving them to flock in towns as street children. Helping to feed a Child at home environment Extreme poverty levels have left most families unable to meet even the most basic of needs for their children. In a country where 65% of families survive on less than a dollar a day. It is evident that high malnutrition levels have left most children with stunted growth and high infants mortality rates. According to United Nations report The Human Development Report 2002, Kenya is one of the WORST performing countries in human development. It says Kenya has a slim chance of meeting millennium development goals namely, halving the proportion of people suffering from hunger, universal education for children, reducing infant mortality rates by 2/3 and halving the proportion of people without water by 2015. It is thus imperative that concerted efforts be put in place to help make the world a better place to live in for these needy children and their immediate families.
