Support for AIDS Orphans in China
Goal: $25,000
About this Mission Project
In the 1990s, villagers in the Henan Province of China fell victim to an illegal blood buying scheme. Poor sanitation exposed adults to the HIV virus and AIDS followed, leaving dozens of children orphaned.
Kunkun lost his parents when he was three, and his grandmother’s income is not enough for him to attend school. Small in stature, but mature beyond his years, Kunkun sports a winning smile. His eyes sparkle with excitement and hope.
In 2004, the Amity Foundation supported 3 AIDS orphans. This year the program enables 70 children to get an education so they can break free of the cycle of poverty typical for orphans. This project provides clothing, food and school supplies making it possible for them to continue their education.
$220 will cover a year of school for 1 child in K–9.
$440 will cover a year of high school for 1 teen.
$750 will cover a year of college.
Knowledge and skills developed now, will lead to future contributions to the community.
Mission Project Specifics
This project seeks to raise $25,000 so we can expand the program to help 100 AIDS orphans to stay in school. The purpose is to make it possible for the kids to receive a basic education equal to others in China. In addition to clothing, food & school supplies, this program will help these kids know they are loved and valued by others. This project is managed by Ms. Liu Li of the Amity Foundation with an additional visit by IM missionary Judith Sutterlin and volunteers. It is anticipated that this project will improve equality of opportunity and the overall education and health of the community.
