With Hearts For Love Worldwide you have two choices.
Grants
Hearts For Love Worldwide provides grants to individuals who will travel or have traveled to Kenya as a volunteer in the past. The volunteer while in Kenya has seen a project, created a project, or been a volunteer at a project or program that they would like to continue to assist with. This volunteer would like to make a difference in the lives of those living in Kenya.
Examples:
- Repairs or construction to provide more suitable living conditions. Desks, tables built for schools.
- A small kitchen needs to be built so that food can be prepared for a day care during the rainy season, or a feeding program began for those in schools, day care, or orphanages.
- Land cleared for a playground, or bathrooms built for the children at their day care.
- Development for clean water source. Program started for educational purposes ~ ongoing.
You get the picture! If you want to help sustain, support, or create a project that will help those living in Kenya, then applying for a grant will be for you. Grants are small at this time, but a small amount of money can go a long way in Kenya.
