everyONE’s Children is a program that cares for children who may have lost their Mother or father or both to AIDS. We believe that children, in such situation, or any child for that matter, should live and be raised within their community along with family members, relatives, friends and others rather than being cared for by orphanages.

In order to enable families and relatives care for the children, everyONE is providing support as follows: monthly groceries, school fees, clothing, medical care (if needed and when needed) as well as support in studying through community tutoring.

To date, everyONE cares for one hundred twenty five children in Addis Ababa. These children are living under the hardest conditions due to the prevailing poverty. everyONE aims to raise the number of children in its care to 200 by the second year (2005). In 2006, we hope to reach 300 and sustain this number, thereafter. The support for each child varies depending on the needs and has a ceiling of ETB 185 (equivalent to 21.00 USD) per month. everyONE’s support is equally provided for children who may be sero-positive or negative, without discrimination. To further enhance the increment of the number of children to be supported everyONE has a sponsorship program.

Any individual can support a child for only 21 dollars a month. The sponsor could communicate wtih the child with any means possible to develop a relationship.

For about less than a dollar, $0.70 cents a day, you can sponsor a child with his/her daily groceries, school fee, school uniforms, clothes, and essential medicare. You receive a photo of your child, biographical information and letters keeping you informed of their progress. Because our administrative costs come out of our general fund 100% of your donation goes directly to support your child. Please consider sponsoring a child now!
