ChildSponsors.Org
2004 / 5 Annual Report
Unfortunately after helping launch
ChildSponsors.com Lady Hills was taken ill and unfortunately died in April
2004.
The family asked for
donations to ChildSponsors, and a large amount was raised allowing
ChildSponsors to make it's first official Donations to help the children
of the world.
Shortly afterwards a crisis emerged in the Sudan with
UNICEF making urgent appeals for finances as Children were starving to
death in that region. ChildSponsors donated £250 to UNICEF £100 for the
Sudan appeal and £50 to 3 other life saving projects UNICEF were
organising.
At the same time ChildSponsors made a donation of £100
to the Chernobyl Childrens Project http://www ChernobylChildren.co.uk.
A project that helps children from the Belarus area where following
a nuclear reactor meltdown the land is highly toxic. The project amongst
other things brings children to the UK for a few weeks holiday which
allows their immune system to recover a little.
In November 2004 ChildSponsors announced the
sponsorship of 2 Children * Boa a girl from Kenya and *Maka a boy from
India. you can view more about Boa and Maka by clicking on the Sponsored
Children Link in the left hand column.

Following the Asian Tsunami Disaster ChildSponsors.Org decided to take
a leap and sponsor 2 more children from countries affected by the Tsunami
a 10 year old Girl * Pamal and a 10 Year old boy from Indonesia * Farh
Child 3 January 2005 10 Year Old Girl from
Sri Lanka
Child 4 February 2005 10 Year Old Boy
from Indonesia
This took our toll to 4 children sponsored
ChildSponsors was originally launched as
ChildSponsors.com. It was decided to change the main organisation to
ChildSponsors.Org the ChildSponsors.com site will eventually be used as a
commercial feeder to raise money for the main Organisation and the benefit
of children.
It has been a struggle over the past year, to get some
of the established charities to accept ChildSponsors as a legitimate
Organisation, but we are getting there and we have started to build
relationships with other child related organisations.
* names have been changed to protect the children's
identities.
