Global Family Philanthropy: Earthquake Relief Mission
Global Family Philanthropy was established with the intention of supporting existing, successful organizations located in Haiti. Currently, two of GFP’s supporting organizations are located in Port au Prince, Haiti, and have suffered damages due to the recent earthquake.
Through extensive fundraising, Global Family Philanthropy will be making efforts to raise monetary support. Through transfers and personal encounters, Global Family Philanthropy will assist in the relocation efforts of orphans and vulnerable children in Port au Prince, Haiti.
The following estimates allow the reader a better understanding of the financials each child requires:
· $100 sends one child to school for one year- including uniforms and supplies.
· $50 provides a child with nutritional needs for one month.
· $10 provides a child with hygienic supplies-toothbrush, shampoo, etc.- for one month.
· $20 provides a child with clothing needs for one month.
· $20 provides a child with basic medical needs for one month.
These amounts are small in appearance, but great in value. In order to assure that every child relocated receives the utmost care, and does not put a strain on temporary care facilities, Global Family Philanthropy is requiring each child be accompanied by $200 a month.
As children receive the funding they require, they will be matched and placed in care facilities that are safe. They will continue to stay in communications with their caretakers in Port au Prince awaiting the word for a safe return.
