The money that is raised with The Hike goes to our SOS children's villages and our other programs in Ghana. The sponsor money is used to give more children a safe home and a loving family. Thanks to the support of the participants, children can count on the care of a family with everything that goes with it. Preferably their own family. If this is no longer possible, we ensure that the children wil be included in one of our villages.
For example, with €1500 SOS Children's Villages you provide two children in a children's village with the following:
- Medication for a year € 130
- Food and drink for a year € 1.070
- Clothes for a year € 300
- Total: €1.500
SOS Children's Villages also tries to prevent family breakdowns which causes children to be left alone, by including families in our family strengthening programs in Ghana. For € 2,700 we can help three children who live in a family that would fall apart without our help for a period of 5 years.
