Orphan Sponsorship

Case Study Information

One child. One family. One act of care.

Sponsor an Afghan orphan through ORCD UK and give a child the steady presence of someone who cares.

Why orphan sponsorship matters

Hundreds of thousands of Afghan children have lost one or both parents to conflict, disaster, or economic hardship. Without support, these children face hunger, interrupted education, and vulnerability to exploitation.

ORCD’s Orphan Sponsorship programme places children with carefully selected, supported Afghan families. Your monthly sponsorship provides what that family needs to care for them properly.

What your sponsorship covers

Food and nutrition

Consistent, adequate food for the child and their caring family.

Education

School enrolment, uniform, books, and stationery.

Healthcare

Medical consultations and medicines when needed.

Family support

A small stipend for the caring family. So looking after this child does not push their own family into hardship.

Quarterly welfare visits

ORCD's field teams visit each sponsored child's household every quarter. Face to face.

Annual update to you

A progress report on how the child is doing at school and how the family is managing.
