SPONSOR A CHILD

You can sponsor an HIV-infected child at NHCC each month and know that your contribution helps to ensure the child’s continued care. Your monthly donation supports housing and food expenses for your sponsored child. Your generosity also covers the child’s medical and educational needs and helps provide for care-giving staff/foster parents.

Sponsors are matched with a child and will receive photos of their sponsored children as well as updates on their progress.

A contribution of $200 each month completely supports one child’s nutritional, medical and education needs. Please click the button to fully sponsor a child at NHCC.

EDUCATIONAL FUND

NHCC is committed to making sure that each child has the opportunity to complete a full education. Proceeds in our Education Fund are earmarked specifically for university and vocational school tuition for the older children.

Contribute $500 pay for a semester’s tuition for one child at university or contribute $300 for a semester’s tuition for one child at vocational school.

MEDICAL EXPENSES FUND

This fund ensures that we can pay for the special ARV medications for our HIV-infected children who are resistant to all other ARV medications. We must import and pay for these special medications ourselves. For one child this amounts to $1,440 each year. Thankfully only a handful of children need these medications at present, but this expense makes up more than 20% of our medical budget.

This fund is also used to underwrite expenses for a child’s emergency medical treatments. For example, when one of our children suffered massive liver and kidney failure, he needed to be rushed to Bangkok where he spent several weeks in intensive care. He made a complete recovery, but the total bill was over $50,000. Generous donors contributed money to help this special little boy but NHCC had to add $20,000 from our very small reserve to cover the balance.
