Why Sponsor a Child with Better Me?

➤ We care for every child individually

Children enrolled into our programs receive individual support through our social workers and are essentially part of our Better Me family.

➤ Your money supports directly

We cover our administrative costs with donations from other sources. 100% of your sponsorship is used to serve the children in our programs.

➤ You have direct contact

You are in direct contact with our social workers on the ground in Kenya. Feel free to reach out at any time to enquire about your sponsored child.

➤ You can come and visit us! 

You are not only able to exchange letters and photos, but are also welcome to visit us in Kenya as a volunteer and meet your sponsored child!

Otieno, 11 yrs

Otieno* (left in photo) has been in the program since he was 7 years old. Today he is excelling in High-School!

Now I am able to read and write and I love going to school. I owe what I am today to Korando and Better Me. I am so grateful for the sponsorship.

I dream of becoming a famous doctor so that I can take care of not only my brothers and sisters, but also all the people who need health care in my country, which was struck so hard by the HIV epidemic.

➤ All children are growing together 

During school time, the Korando Educational Centre becomes our “families” second home, with its own unique feeling, rhythm and routine. Under its roof, children enjoy a real sense of unity, while growing and learning together, sharing responsibilities and all the joys and sorrows of daily life. We further nurture the feeling of unity by organizing extra-curricular activities and summer camps for all children.

Connecting with Your Sponsored Child

Writing Letters

The children are happy to hear from their sponsors and learn about their families and countries. Letters and pictures are well-received and will be happily answered.

Giving Presents

Because all children in our programs are treated equally, we only encourage to give presents that can be shared between all children. For this we have created a Gift Catalog to choose from. You can give presents at anytime, for holidays or just because you are thinking of them.

Exceptions for special events can of course be made. Please contact us to chat about it.

Visiting Your Sponsored Child

You are very welcome to visit our Better Me family in Kenya either as a volunteer or as a short-term visitor.
