Amani

The following kids are single-parent orphans and/or extremely vulnerable children who are unable to afford new clothing or rely on a steady source of food each day. Some of the kids below have already been matched with a person or family and have had the opportunity for correspondence and cultural exchange. Sponsors are encouraged to write to their orphans and send emails, pictures, or other small items. Those kids without name(s) in the right-most column are still in need of sponsors.

Similar to World Vision's sponsorship program, becoming a sponsor benefits the well-being of the child you are sponsoring. One of the most important components of sponsorship is forming relationships. All sponsors are encouraged to write letters and send pictures to the children with whom they have been linked. Our on-site director, Mathew, facilitates this program in Tanzania.
