CHILD SPONSORSHIPS

You could also sponsor a child who has found refuge here at Shanti. With at least € 30 per month, we can cover the basic costs of food and clothing for the child. However, additional funds are needed to pay for kindergarten or school as well as medical care. The money you donate will not be used exclusively for “your” specific child, but goes into the so-called “children's donation fund”. This fund is used to cover the expenses for all of the children cared for at Shanti.

We do this because many of the children in the Shanti family do not yet have sponsors. We want to avoid giving these children the feeling that they are not loved. Naturally, all of the children – whether sponsored or not – go to kindergarten or school and receive the same amount of food and medical attention, of course. Through sponsorships, we can be sure to cover the total monthly expenses for all children.

Yes, I would like to sponsor a child!

LIFE TREE PROJECT

Our Life Tree Project is something special. On one hand, the steep grounds in Budhanilkhanta is held firmly in place by the roots of the fruit trees, while on the other hand these trees provide the Shanti residents and children with fresh fruit and necessary vitamins. Trees like these are a wonderful gift for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, achievements and other occasions. You might also let a living tree grow in memory of loved ones who've passed on.

Tree donations are easy to make via the form. You can choose whether to donate one or multiple trees or donate above the € 25 per tree.

We will thank you with a stone engraved with your name, which will be added to the large stone pyramid of all donors in Budhanilkhanta. We will also send you a decorative certificate designed by one of the Shanti painters.

Yes, I would like to donate a tree!
