TWO MINDS, ONE HEART
CHILDREN'S SPONSORSHIPS​
​
The East Africa Partnership and its partners provide support for approximately 1,500 needy and orphaned children. Through our sponsorship programs, we assist about 150 kids at a cost of $1 per day ($35 monthly). Your donation goes a long way in providing these underprivileged children with shelter, three meals a day, education, and most importantly, hope for a better life.
​
In addition to the 11 homes we support, we collaborate with local churches and aid organizations to ensure that the children are actively engaged in the community. We also provide mentors and tutors for the kids and assist families with school fees. We have recently partnered with Little Lambs, an organization that sponsors 85 children at two locations in Kenya, covering their school fees, providing food, and offering tutoring.
EDUCATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS
​​
Recognizing the transformative power of education, the East Africa Partnership established the Dick Grace Scholarship in 2003. The program has enabled many students to graduate from high school and university, empowering them to support their families and contribute to both the program and their communities. Many Dick Grace Scholarship recipient also gives back to EAP. As the program continues to expand, it now supports nearly 40 deserving students.
​
We have also pledged that all of the children we sponsor in our Homes will have the opportunity to advance in school as far as their passion and ability take them. Therefore, each year, we will welcome 10-20 new students into the program.
MEDICAL PROGRAM​
​
Millions of people throughout East Africa do not have access to even the most basic medical care. The EAP is dedicated to bringing quality, affordable, and self-sustaining healthcare to local communities. More than 65 local dispensaries have been equipped and operated by the EAP, providing medical care to almost 1 million people in need. Eleven hospitals receive vital medical equipment, and medical mission trips work to train the local providers. We have helped to fund and support 4 medical or nursing schools
​
Almost 200 hospitals, universities, doctors, and companies support the EAP by providing lightly used medical equipment. Since 2007, the EAP has sent more than 10 containers of medical equipment, worth approximately $25 million, to our partners in East Africa.
FARMING & IRRIGATION PROGRAM​
​
Having enough food is a prerequisite for all other progress - medical care, education, and helping orphaned children. Working in partnership with local communities, the EAP is helping to provide modern farming and irrigation techniques. Whether the project is helping a family provide a balanced, nutritional diet on only a 1/4 acre of land, or a commercial endeavor involving hundreds of acres, the EAP is working to provide quality jobs and food security.
​
These farming projects also have the added benefit of providing food for our children in the Homes. Profits are put back into the program, helping to start other projects and support the Children's Homes.
