Asociación Jennystar ONG - 2 0 0 6
| JennyStar DVD Rentals supports, with your movie
rentals and our "profits", these children all year round (click
to read more). We pay monthly support for their education,
school supplies, clothes for the children, plus health cover for the
children and their parents, as well as contributions toward their
houses. For their birthdays, the get shoes. We do all
this through "Common
Hope", which here in Guatemala is known as "Familias de
Esperanza", who channel the funds to the families and have social
workers who supervise that the children stay at school and any
building and other supplies are properly used. The condition
for staying in the program is that the children attend school.
Jennifer and ourselves also visit the families to make sure all is
well. In addition to our regular monthly support, we also are collecting gifts for Christmas ... see below. Click to see the same page for 2007 and donations for 2008. |
