How Your Sponsorship Equips Children through the Not Alone program

Children who have lost a father in Egypt face many injustices. Children as young as 10 years old can become bread-winners for their families. They often face illiteracy, malnutrition, and a future without hope of breaking out of poverty.

Sponsors often wonder how small monthly contributions can do so much for children and communities in light of these many obstacles in Egypt.

Just was we can accomplish a lot more in a team than on our own, sponsorship dollars when pooled together can address the root causes, not merely the symptoms, of poverty in families and communities.

An example:

instead of paying for expensive medicine to cure easily-preventable anemia one child at a time, we can have a workshop that will show many mothers how to prepare nutritious meals and prevent their entire families from acquiring anemia in the first place.

Because of your sponsorship, your sponsored child and other Not Alone children will develop their potential with the following benefits of this critical program:

•  Regular home visits, during which a Rep provides encouragement and mentorship while assessing individual    child and family needs such as literacy, housing, health, nutrition, or community advocacy;

•  Enrichment Trips that open a child’s vision and draw out their curiosity;

•  Workshops that encourage life-skills like reading, goal setting, and critical thinking;

•  Awareness seminars on good hygene and harmful traditional practices such as child marriage and female genital mutilation/cutting;

•  Training for the child’s Rep so he or she can better equip the child.

Next Steps:
