raising money in a capital fund to build a permanent school, dining hall and
dormitories for the orphanage. Our goal is $150,000 and is part of a longer
term plan to make the Rev. Abuga’s efforts sustainable and eventually selfsufficient through the establishment of an endowment for the orphanage.
If you think your classmates, family, friends or colleagues would be
interested in organizing a sponsorship of one or several children in Etora,
please let us know. We would be happy to answer any questions you have, and
are always seeking ways to improve our operations and donor relationships.

We have received encouragement and guidance from individuals across
the globe, inside and out of the Church, as this effort has taken shape. We know
that many people have concerns, ranging from the environment in Kenya to
the nature of New Church charities in general. We appreciate the importance
of every donor understanding exactly where his or her gift will be going and
for what purposes.
In economic conditions that don’t necessarily make giving easy, our
objective is to earn your contribution through complete transparency,
responsiveness to feedback, clear communication about strategy and risk
mitigation, and a clear grounding in New Church doctrine. Please consider
giving to HCIC and joining us as we try putting the doctrine of charity into
action, one child at a time.
