Orphans Sponsorship Program

Through our sponsorship program, you provide financial support to help cover a child’s education, healthcare, nutrition, and personal development. Your sponsorship ensures the child grows up in a safe, loving, and caring environment with access to basic needs and opportunities for a better future.

The monthly contribution for a child sponsorship is 29 euros (that’s just 0.97 euros a day).

Your sponsorship contribution is tax-deductible. You will receive a donation receipt from us.

If you wish to provide additional support, you can make extra donations to help with special needs or emergencies.

Yes! We believe in open and personal connections between sponsors and the children they support. You can communicate with your sponsored child through letters, photos, or messages via WhatsApp (through their caregiver). This allows you to build a real and meaningful relationship while respecting the child’s privacy and safety.

Absolutely! We provide regular updates, including progress reports, photos, and letters from your sponsored child. You will also receive updates on how your support is making a difference in their life and community.

Yes, if you wish to meet your sponsored child, we can help arrange a visit in a safe and structured way. Our team will support you throughout the process to ensure a meaningful and positive experience for both you and the child.

We are committed to transparency and accountability. Your sponsorship contribution is allocated as follows:

We ensure that 100% of your sponsorship goes toward improving the child’s life and their future.

Yes, like all online payment transactions, a small portion of each donation is subject to processing fees charged by payment platforms. However, we want to assure you that 100% of your sponsorship donation reaches your sponsored child—we do not deduct any fees from your contribution.

As an NGO, we cover these fees ourselves, but if you’d like to help us offset these costs, you can choose to add a small extra amount when making your donation. Below is a breakdown of the transaction fees we pay:

• Platform fee: 2.5% (plus external service fees such as Stripe, PayPal, etc.)
• PayPal donations: 1.5% + €0.35 per transaction (we qualify for PayPal’s lowest rate for non-profits)
• Stripe fees:
  • 1.5% + €0.25 for standard cards from the European Economic Area (EEA)
  • 2.5% + €0.25 for cards from the United Kingdom + 2% if currency conversion is required
  • 3.25% + €0.25 for foreign cards + 2% if currency conversion is required
  • €0.35 for SEPA Direct Debit Scheme
  • From 2.99% + €0.35 for Klarna payments

🔹 Domestic standard cards:

• Cards issued by Visa and Mastercard for consumers
• All cards issued by American Express, Discover, Diners Club, Maestro, Cartes Bancaires, and UnionPay

🔹 Domestic premium cards:

• Corporate, company, and business cards issued by Visa and Mastercard

We deeply appreciate any additional support to help us cover these unavoidable transaction costs, but whether you choose to help with these fees or not, your full sponsorship amount will always reach your sponsored child.

We understand that personal or financial circumstances can change. If you are no longer able to continue your sponsorship, you can cancel your child sponsorship at any time without giving reasons.

We kindly ask that you inform us as soon as possible so we can arrange alternative support for the child. Our priority is to ensure that every sponsored child continues to receive the care, education, and opportunities they need.

If you have any questions or need assistance with the cancellation process, please feel free to reach out to us. We appreciate your support, no matter how long you were able to contribute it has made a difference in a child’s life!

Of course! If you would like to send a birthday gift, holiday present, or additional financial support, you are more than welcome to do so. We will ensure that your extra donation is used according to your wishes and will send you a picture of the child receiving your gift.

To keep logistics costs low and to support local businesses, we encourage purchasing gifts locally in the child’s community. This not only ensures that the child receives something meaningful and useful but also contributes to the local economy.

Please bear in mind that particularly large or valuable gifts can sometimes cause envy and resentment in the community. We therefore recommend gifts that encourage collaborative play and learning. Such gifts strengthen the sense of community and support children’s development in a meaningful way. If you need help choosing a suitable gift, we will be happy to advise you.
