Here's what your support means
Still undecided about whether you can commit to Prayer and a Pound Sponsorship? Here's what some of those who rely on support, told us...
"I wandered the streets pregnant before the crisis centre helped me." – Orina
“My husband works hard but it's not enough to pay the bills." – Ksusha
"I was left alone on the street with nowhere to live and no place to eat." – Milo
"My husband was mobilised so I am struggling financially." – Serafima
"I need help. I can't cope with providing clothes for my children." - Odessa
Many of the people supported by this program were orphaned as children. Poverty plagues all of them as they battle to keep their children from a system that took them when they were young.
As a Christian charity, we believe in, and know the power of prayer. It would mean a lot to these individuals to know someone cares enough to pray for them often...
...and your pounds, that sustain the projects they rely on, make a difference in their lives too...
