Children International has found that in order to improve the lives of impoverished children, we must strive to improve the conditions of the entire family.
In an effort to create a more comfortable, safe and sanitary home, Children International has developed a family assistance program to provide relief in times of need.
Sponsored families may receive benefits such as:
- bedding, dishes, eating utensils and cleaning supplies
- home repairs and furnishings
- emergency aid after natural disasters
- community improvement projects, like tube wells and sanitary waste systems
- literacy programs for mothers
- microenterprise support
For families struggling to get by on just dollars a day, household essentials become luxury items, and emergencies can shatter already fragile finances.
The family assistance program helps families in need, and provides some comfort, security and peace of mind.
