Clothing

Healthcare

Supporting orphan’s medical expenses gives them an opportunity to live long healthy and fruitful lives

Food

“All children are created equal, thus they should have the same opportunities in life, the chance to grow up healthy and happy, to receive a good education and live in a loving and caring environment.”

Human Appeal is currently sponsoring almost 68,200 orphans in 15 countries including Sudan, Lebanon, Bosnia, Palestine, Iraq & Afghanistan. For as little as $50 per month, Orphan sponsorship can provide for vital needs and comprehensive care for orphans and their families. Regular monthly payments go towards easing their hardships and enhancing their quality of life prospects.

An Orphan’s Dream

Personal Development

“At Human Appeals Australia, we believe that education plays a vital role in developing future leaders.”

When children are offered the opportunity to gain knowledge, they can develop skills that in turn enable them and their community to break out of the cycle of poverty and hopefully lead them to a brighter future.

Human Appeal Australia also focuses on the orphans’ mothers by educating them and increasing their awareness of health and society. Special consideration is also paid towards infant orphans and orphans with special needs.

Since 1991

“Human Appeal Australia has been working with orphans and needy children since 1991.”

This immensely important program began in Sudan whilst HAA was delivering an emergency response to the famine-stricken country at the time. Many children had lost their parents and were left without the crucial essentials required for life. The HAA program has expanded dramatically since then, growing year after year, to become a global network of support. Sadly numbers of orphans continue to rise each year as a direct result of drought, famine, natural disasters, and conflicts around the world, and so there is still an enormous amount of work to be done.

In order to keep this dream alive, we need your generous support to help those less fortunate than us!

SR NASIMA’S SUCCESS STORY

Nasima

Nasima Khatun is a 55-year-old widow from Satkhira, Bangladesh who has experienced firsthand the benefits of the Orphan Sponsorship and Community Development Program. Since her husband died two years ago, her life became incredibly difficult. Living in poverty, she struggled to provide the very basics to her three children, who had not enough food, no education as they could not afford to, plus no medical care. Human Appeal Australia has intervened in changing the life of the entire family.

Nasima was part of a developmental program run by Human Appeal; she went through courses in agriculture and livestock to produce commodities such as food, fibre and labour. She was then provided with a milking cow through our sustainable development program, which provided her with economic stability in order for her to support her family independently. She is now able to milk the cow which produces nutritious milk and allows her to earn a living to feed her children and provide education. Nasima is now interested in investing her income in agriculture.

BR MUHAMMAD’S SUCCESS STORY

Muhammad

Muhammad Bigovic, was born to Bosnian parents in 1990. As he reached the age of nine, he lost his father and was left orphaned. However, the absence of his father did not prevent him from pursuing his life goals to succeed. Soon after the passing of his father, he gained sponsorship from Human Appeal.

The sponsorship secured Muhammad’s secondary school education at first. Later he excelled in his school studies and was accepted to study a Bachelor’s Degree in Telecommunication Engineering at university without even taking the admission’s exam. In very little time he received the Dux Award for being the top student in his course. Bigovic then decided to do his Masters Degree and completed with excellent results; and has since been appointed as a teaching assistant at the university. His story of excellence continues as he has also been selected by the European Union amongst other experts to work on a telecommunications project. Muhammad is still in touch with Human Appeal assisting when possible and was proud to be sponsored as he had the chance to pursue his goals and prove to the world what he was capable of.

How long do I sponsor an orphan for?

Orphan sponsorship is a continuous commitment unless instructed by the sponsor. For the orphan, the sponsorship goes on for several years, usually until he/she reaches the maturity age of 18 years.

In all such circumstances, sponsorship payments will stop for the orphan and HAA we will try and explain the changing situation to you.
