Orphan Sponsorship
> Orphan Sponsorship
An orphan is a child deprived by the death of one or usually both parents. An estimated 153 million children worldwide are orphans (UNICEF).
Worldwide, there are 168 million child labourers. In the world’s poorest countries around 1 in 4 children are engaged in child labour (UNICEF). Child labour can result in extreme physical and mental harm, and even death. It can lead to slavery and sexual or economic exploitation. And in nearly every case, it cuts children off from schooling and health care, restricting their fundamental rights and threatening their futures.
READ Foundation is adamant to end childhood deprivation. You have the power to give an orphaned child the foundation for a promising future. We provide support with education, clothing, food and accommodation by providing a stipend for the orphan family and subsides in their education, so they don’t have to pay any school fees to get the education they deserve. This is ultimately their route out of poverty.
As we open the door to an education, we unlock their future. Education is the difference between failure and success. It is the difference between poverty and prosperity. READ Foundation currently cares for more than 11,000 orphans. Together, we can educate as many of the 153 million orphans as we possibly can.
Your sponsorship will provide an education and the fundamental needs of these very worthy hearts.
“Blessed is the wealth of a muslim from which he gives to the poor, the orphans and to needy travellers.” (Prophet Mohammed saw)
