  ORPHANS AND STREET CHILDREN
 

According to UN estimates, there are approximately 150 million street children around the world. In Sub-Saharan Africa alone there are at least 48 million orphans.

Millions of children live and work on the streets, without protection from traffickers, pedophiles, criminals and abusers. Millions of children do not have food or education, adequate shelter, or a loving family as we know it.

The dynamic projects below truely are making a significant difference in the lives of thousands of orphans and street children.

Our Global Angels Promise means that 100% of the donation we receive from you goes directly to the project you choose!

 

  Drop-In Center for Street Kids, Pattaya, Thailand
 
Every day children arrive in the holiday resort town of Pattaya hoping to find a better life for themselves. Many have left a life of abuse and poverty, and many think the streets of Pattaya are paved with gold.

The reality is that many will fall into the hands of pimps who will sell them to pedophiles where they will be beaten if they refuse to do as they are told. If it is not the pimps who catch them it is the local gangs who make the children beg or steal. Many are forced to take drugs, making them addicted so that they will always do as they are told and not run away

The Drop-In Center for Street Kids helps these kids change their lives. They have a safe place to sleep, they won’t go to bed feeling hungry, they have someone to talk to and they are beginning have their childhood back again.

Some of these kids will eventually move to the new Father Ray's Village, where they will have a home in a community.

Please help us support these children with medicine, schooling, books, musical instruments and food.

  New Village for Orphans and Street Kids, Pattaya, Thailand
 
A new village is being built for some of Thailand's most vulnerable children. When the village is complete there will be twenty homes with between four and ten children, boys and girls, all different ages living as ‘brothers & sisters’ in a family, cared for by a house ‘mother’. They will learn what it is like to live not just as part of a loving family, but also what it is like to be part of a community.

Most children in Thailand are very loved and cared for, but in resorts like Pattaya there are an increasing number of street children, orphans and children trafficked and sold into prostitution and criminal activities.

Drawing from the Drop In Center, a refuge for children in extreme situations, and from the large orphan homes, children will be moved into new small homes and families in the Village, go to school and given opportunity for a new start.

Both the New Village project and Drop In Center are part of the renowned Father Ray Foundation.

Each permanent home only costs £8,500 to build. Please help us build these homes and contribute to the ongoing care of these children with medicine, schooling, books, musical instruments and food.

Please give whatever you can. Every little bit helps and 100% of these donations will go direct to the project.

  MULLY’S CHILDRENS FAMILY (MCF), KENYA
 
MCF rescues and rehabilitates street children providing them with schooling and a family environment where they can get the necessary skills in order to be independent and valuable contributors in their communities.

After 17 years of dedicated work, Charles and Esther Mully are ‘Mama and Papa’ to more than 1,800 children and youth from the Kibera Slums in Nairobi. Most have been orphaned by HIV/ Aids and were living by crime and prostitution on the street.

Many have earned EU organic farming qualifications and help provide Europe with Kenyan organic french beans. The income generated returns to support the children at MCF as part of their self-sustaining strategy.

The Night Shelter assures a secure place for 5-12 year old boys to rest, have a bath and share a meal with other boys.

The Children’s Home allows youths to live in a family environment. Here they receive the love, care and discipline of a normal, loving home.

Stories From Ashadeep

  Community Centre, Curitiba, Brazil
Rescuing and Empowering Street Children
 
Children living on the streets are vulnerable and are susceptible to the most terrible things such as drug dealers, traffickers and pimps, rape, violence and hunger….

The Cajuru Community Centre is about giving Brazilian street children back their childhood. By taking teenage mothers and their young children off the streets or out of abusive situations, providing food, education, a happy and safe environment to live in, they are given the time, love and support they need to turn their situations around and start a new life.

The success of this project has been recognized by the Brazilian government, and although they don't provide direct funding they refer vulnerable children and their mothers to the Centre every week for safety and rehabilitation.

For these children who have no-one, or are living in danger, the Cajuru Community Center provides housing and foster care or Day Care alongside education, sport, music, arts, dance and fun.

The new building projects will double the Center’s day care capacity.

Help us protect and empower a generation of children in Brazil.

More About The Project

  The Rwanda Training Center, Rwanda
 
The Fred Nkunda Orphan Home is a safe haven to hundreds of orphans in Rwanda. Altogether 9,600 orphans from the home have been placed in foster care families.

The Rwandan government kindly provided a 15 hectare piece of land on which to establish a facility that is comprised of a clinic, dining hall, laundry, kitchen, administration block, staff quarters and dormitories designed to accommodate 600 orphans.

The Rwanda Training Center, which is also located on this property, is training orphans, street children, as well as children from surrounding villages in life skills that will enable them to become independent and able to provide for themselves and their families.

Training includes computer literacy, carpentry, art, drawing, agriculture, sewing and pottery. Children in the carpentry class have built school desks and chairs for the home and center.

Global Angels Ambassador, Nate James has recently visited this center and said it was the best project he saw in Rwanda.

Stories from Purnata Bhaven

 

Bringing Dynamic Transformation to Street Children &

 

The Jyoti Street Project philosophy is to reduce poverty, improve health, education and create job opportunities for disadvantaged Nepalese children by allowing the children themselves to be at the center of the project planning process.

Douglas Maclagan pioneered CWS (Child Welfare Scheme) in response to the tremendous suffering of children in Nepal.

By empowering these children to make decisions about their own life and future, and offering them respect, protection, life skills, education, shelter, nutrition and health support, CWS has helped 53,000 disadvantaged young people.

SIX INNOVATIVE PROJECTS RUN BY, AND FOR STREET CHILDREN:

1. A Contact Center, providing a safe haven for street kids, where they receive informal and life-skill education. Here they can relax, play and be creative.

2. A Night Shelter, providing children with safety while they sleep.

3. Children’s Development Bank. Since homeless children are not allowed to open an account at a regular bank; they have to spend it or risk having it stolen. This project enables them to save money the little money they can accumulate and save it safely.

4. A Street Children’s Restaurant, providing simple nutritional food that is bought, cooked and served by street kids for their peers.

5. A Children’s Newspaper, a quarterly publication relevant to street children featuring work written by their peers.

6. Children’s Radio, featuring segments produced by street children for their peers.

Global Angels would like to raise $40,000 for the Jyoti Street Project to contribute toward developing the children’s bank, restaurant, radio and newspaper projects, alongside the My World My View project.

If you would like to be an Angel and support this project click Donate and give.
