Child Sponsorship

We help Ugandan children go to school, receive medical care, and learn about Jesus through our discipleship ministry. We achieve this through the generosity of others – by becoming child sponsors and ministry partners.

Who You Help

You can assist a Ugandan child in desperate need that simply cannot afford to go to school. In addition, many children risk being pulled from school if they cannot pay school fees the following term. Help ensure that these children receive an education. We currently work in the Wakiso and Mityana areas of Uganda.

What sponsorship includes

Education – Your gifts provide school fees, shoes, uniforms, and scholastic materials as well as boarding school costs and requirements for secondary, vocational and university students; also periodic skills training for students and/or parents as well as home visits and check-ins by sponsorship coordinators.
Health Care – Medical and dental coverage is offered at nearby clinics, as well as access to mental health services (group and one-on-one counseling sessions).
Christian Discipleship – Sponsorship pays teachers, provides Bible materials, and a meal at club for primary and secondary students; plus the cost for older secondary, vocational, and university students to attend “Straight Talk” quarterly during their school breaks to be mentored and counseled in a youth group setting.

Costs

Each child has three-six sponsorships depending on grade level due to the structure of school fees and requirements in Uganda besides the additional offerings of health care and Bible Club that BOHAM offers.

Primary – 3 sponsorships

Secondary – 4 sponsorships

Vocational – 4 sponsorships

University – 6 sponsorships

We encourage sponsors to make a long-term commitment to their sponsored child to ensure that they receive timely benefits until they graduate from secondary school, if not university.

 

Why Relationships Are Important

You can create a special bond with your sponsored child and make an emotional impact in their life. And we hope you do! You will receive three letters and an updated photo of your sponsored child each year – mailed to you. You also have the ability to write letters to your sponsored child and of course to visit them through one of BOHAM’S vision trips.
