How You Can Help the OVC’s
We have realized that
to achieve the Acacia Principles and Objectives we have to involve the whole
nation at large to be part of this Acacia Vision.
ACT estimates that it
takes N$500 (US$55) per month to administer, manage, and provide all the basic needs to an orphan within a family setting (N$ 6000.00/US$670.00 a year).
The bulk of the resources are the people themselves who contribute 60 present
of the resources including care board and room, free labour, skill, and
knowledge. Secondly, the organization depends on the supply of local materials
such as land, wood, grass, and, space for meetings. The local
resources are not sufficient, and as such, ACT has to solicit for external help
to supplement the efforts of the family units and the communities to meet the
needs of the OVC's.
Needed are the
remaining 40 percent of the resources that are critical to the life of the
program: these resources are beyond the capacity of the family units / the extended family. They are necessary to
supplement the efforts of the family units. They include finances and hardware
such as means of transportation, various office, training equipment , farming implements and building materials. ACT needs and has benefited from
foreign human resources.
You can be part of
the gift of hope to the orphans and vulnerable children at risk by contributing
directly to the program in the form of cash, by the gift of stock and bonds, by
donations and contribution in kind. You may bequeath your estate or other valuables;
you may be able to indirectly adopt kid(s).
There are many
possibilities for collaboration in projects. There are opportunities for
volunteering one’s skills, talents and knowledge to the organization. Please
contact us directly to discuss possibilities.
Donation made to the
trust will be available to any of the children and activities of the
Trust.
