Dear donors
We are excited to fill you in on our plans to help stateless children in 2019. With your help we can make sure that these children have a secure future.
In 2018 you helped us raise $7652. This means we exceeded our initial goal of $5000! To get an idea of the kind of work we did last year, follow the link below and read the story about Mary, her 4 children and 2 grandchildren who got citizenship after their court case was succesful in 2018.
In celebration of 2018's successes we have decided to increase our goal to $20 000!
This new goal will allow us to provide DNA testing to approximately 140 children or pay for residence applications for more than 200 vulnerable children. It can also help us pay for court applications for children without other options.
The aim of these interventions is to secure the idenity, official documentation and citizenship of stateless children in South Africa. With a birth certificate they can access schools and hospitals and be eligible for adoption and other important solutions for abandoned and orphaned children.
To donate on a monthly basis follow the link below.
We look forward to sending you an update of the first successes of 2019!
