| What our money buys |
|
Child Sponsorship of $25 per month provides the following. • Shelter • Food • Clothing • Education • Hope • And a future Our main goal at “All Things Indian” is to raise funds for the ICMC orphanage in India, we have over 2,000 children of which over 1,400 don’t have sponsors, therefore there is a huge hole in our funding, each day we use 1,500 kgs of rice as well as vegetables to go with the rice, the children get meat once a week on Sundays and an egg twice a week. We have plans in place to grow our own meat which is an expensive exercise but one that is important to the well being of the children. It is our aim at ATI to provide as much funding to help these precious children. Some of the ways that our money can be spent is shown below. • $10 buys new clothing for 1 child • $80 buys a goat • $100 buys a 75kg sack of rice • $150 buys a calf We have many other projects that are in constant stages of growth. • We have approximately 30 acres to grow rice. However, we need more. • We are currently building new Hostels for the children. • We need to purchase some land within our property so we can expand our dam, providing more water so we can grow more rice. (rice is grown under water) • We still need to build more buildings to accommodate our children in schools. This includes Colleges that will enable us to provide specific trades to our children. E.g. Teacher training College, Nursing College and Engineering College Other Future Projects • We need a tractor to cultivate useful land. Cost $13,500 • Mobile medical van. Cost $15,000 • School benches and desk as children now sit on the cement floor. Cost $12,000 Hopefully as ATI grows each month we will be able to provide funds for some of the abovementioned projects, it is our dream to one day provide enough funding to see all these plans become a reality.
