Please Help the Sparrow Rainbow Village HIV/AIDS Hospice and Children’s Home


Hi Everyone

We are appealing for assistance from caring, compassionate donors who can afford to donate R25.00 to help us provide the basic needs of the orphaned children in our care.

The Sparrow Rainbow Village HIV/AIDS Hospice and Children’s Home in Maraisburg, celebrated its 20th Birthday in February this year.

The Village, when established, was the first its kind in the World and has been responsible for saving the lives of 1000’s of patients that have admitted into the highly rated facilities, receiving the FREE OF CHARGE 24hr medical care provided with love by our trained, dedicated nursing staff and doctors.

Sadly however, many patients waited too long to get help and despite all our efforts trying to save them, they died, leaving their now orphaned children in our care. Together with the other Children placed into our home by the South African Courts and Social Services, we have nearly 250 orphaned children, totally dependent on Sparrow Ministries for all their basic requirements, including education, clothing, meals, housing, medical and emotional needs.

As you can imagine, caring for this number of children is a huge task and being 100% dependent on donations, very few of them have had the experience of receiving new shoes, clothing or even a birthday present.

With his in mind we are appealing to all individuals, Business and Companies receiving this email to request their friends, family members and customers to donate R25.00 in lieu of Birthday or Christmas cards to the Children’s Home, so that we may raise sufficient funding to purchase each of our children a new pair of school shoes or even just for once, take a child shopping on their birthday and allow them to choose a new clothing item of their choice.
 
DONATING THE R25.00 IS SO EASY AND SIMPLE

SIMPLY SMS THE WORD “CARE” TO 41423 AND SPARROW WILL RECEIVE 100 % OF THE R25.00 THAT IS CHARGED TO YOUR AIRTIME WITHOUT ANY DEDUCTIONS OR CHARGES BY THE CELL PHONE NETWORKS.
 
SMS  THE WORD “ CARE”  TO NUMBER    41423   
 
Together with donations from other donors responding to this appeal, your R25.00 donation will have a major impact on the lives of the children in our care.
 
If you doubt that this is a legitimate request then please contact Sparrow Ministries for confirmation.     
 
I also will appreciate it if everyone receiving this would please pass it on to their own personal contact list, asking your friends, contacts and family to assist us in this very worthy cause.
 
Kindest Regards
