The first-time sponsorship fee for sponsoring a child from Buyiga Island is 375 EUR and it includes a startup fee of 150 EUR and sponsorship fee per Quarter of 225 EUR. The startup requirements include 2 school uniforms, school shoes, school bag, Exercise books, counter books (for the upper classes), typing papers, pens, pencils, ruler, graph books, colored pencils (for kindergarten and lower primary), toilet papers and other personal belongings.
For the continuing Quarters, a sponsor will be invoiced 225 EUR per Quarter which is 75 EUR per month. You can chose whether you want to pay quarterly, half year or yearly. Additional costs will be new uniforms 100 EUR that are invoiced once a year at the turn of the year.
Taking the child to a boarding school at Buyiga Island.
When a child is sponsored at the Boarding school at Buyiga Island, all costs are including in the sponsorship fee.
Bringing the child to the schools in the city.
In case a sponsor would like their sponsor child to go to the schools in the city, the sponsor will kindly make an extra payment of 45 EUR 3 times a year which is 135 EUR a year. This is to cater for the transportation of the child from the Island by the staff to the child’s school and transportation costs for the child back to the island during holidays. We have 3 school terms in the year and the sponsor will be required to pay for transportation of the child 3 times in a school year. Being that the Island is remote and away from the city, it is expensive for the parents of the children to send their children from the Island to our partner schools in the city.
Accommodation of the child during holidays.
In case a sponsor would like their sponsor child to enjoy his/her holidays in the city and have a safer and happy home than back at the island, the child can be accommodated at Help Africa guest house or with a foster home that could be relatives of the staff .
The sponsor will have to make a payment of 170 EUR to cater for food and the caretaker per school holiday. For a year a sponsor will be required to make a payment of 510 EUR (for the 3 school holidays). The child will be well assured of 3 good meals a day, a comfortable bed to sleep and a safer and happy home.
