$52.50
SKU: sponsorship-family-50
The cost to sponsor a family is a minimum of US$50.00 per month (US$1.66 per day – the equivalent of half a cup of Starbucks coffee) and the cost to sponsor a child is US$30.00 per month (US$1.00 per day- the equivalent of a can of coke). View details at http://globaltamilforum.org/gtf/content/idp
The role of the sponsor is to provide financial assistance to enable the child or family to receive food, clothing, medicine and education. The sponsor is not an adoptive parent, neither has claim over the child, but will sponsor purely on a humanitarian basis. It is recommended that a sponsor will continue to support the child or family until they are self-sufficient or at least 12 months.
Payments can be made in full or monthly in 12 installments. Receipts will be sent to the sponsor's mailing address by the NGOs/orphanages.
NOTE:
This project is managed by a dedicated team of volunteers and there are no administration fees from Global Tamil Forum. However, for online transactions, Paypal charges 3.9% + 30p for each transaction and that has been taken into account for payments.

Global Tamil Forum enabled this online payment facility mainly for persons who do not have enough information on how to send funds directly to the various orphanages, amidst the present chaos.
