Our financial analysis has determined that the Living Hope Uganda orphanage needs approximately $5,300/month in donations to meet its operational costs for the support and care of its 161 orphans (including the school) . This equates to approximately $33/month per orphan. As such, we have introduced an Orphan Sponsorship option to establish a consistent revenue stream to cover the orphanage’s monthly operational costs. This Model asks donors to commit to providing the equivalent of the monthly support for one or more orphans at $33/month each.
