Sponsor a Child

This is the default caption.

The problems facing many countries in the developing world today are varied and at times seem overwhelming. But it is possible to make a difference to individual lives through child sponsorship.

The Hotcourses Foundation has identified children and young adults affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa who are desperate to get to school or college but unable to pay the fees. Very often they have lost their parents to HIV/AIDS and are having to support younger brothers and sisters. Education provides their best hope for the life of promise they have been denied to date.

As a small charity organisation, it is possible for our volunteers to meet most of the children and follow their progress closely. Your support for their school fees will transform not just a child's life, but the lives and hopes of a whole family.

We will keep you informed by email of how our work is progressing, including an annual report of your sponsored child's progress.

Please sponsor a child today. Thank you in advance for making a difference to a child's life.
