The orphans need everything: clothes, shoes, food, medicine, school fee etc. etc.

What can a child get for € 10 / $ 10? E.g.:

* One year school fee in secondary school
* Food for more than a whole month
* Malaria medicine tablets
* One day AIDS-treating medicine (AZT)

Why donate?

What can you get for $ 10 if you live in a developed country? 
Some few packets of cigarettes? 
Some few bottles of wine? 
Some few litres of gasoline? 

Please think it over. What do $ 10 more or less mean to you? For an orphan child it can mean the difference between life and death.

Who administrates that bank account?

The account is administrated by the Danish Youht Group "Foreningen Slaenget" which supports Wind of Hope in Arid Youth. The account administration is supervised and controlled by deputy school headmaster, Mr. Allan Hejnfelt, Tarup Youth School, Rismarksvej 80, 5200 Odense V, Denmark and the elected accountant, Freddy Eskesen, Denmark.

Why are donations not paid directly to Wind of Hope in the Arid?

That is because of bank fees. Just to withdraw from own bank account Wind of Hope has to pay about $ 10 each time = a whole year of school fee for a child!
Donations are safely transfered to Kenya and Wind of Hope through MS Danish Association for International Co-operation, Kenya department in Nairobi where we have no fees.
There are small fees if you donate using PayPal and may be using bank transfer (depending on your bank conditions).

It is also possible to donate directly (please see "Sending checks" to the left).

Can we trust it?

The Danish youth group Foreningen Slaenget has donated Wind of Hope several times among other things for shelters for orphans, school books, a poultry farm and an AIDS-test lab and always got original receipts. Also the UN organisation UNICEF supports Wind of Hope in the Arid what it hardly would do if there were suspicious conditions in Wind of Hope.
If you have any doubts that you can trust this account you can call Wind of Hope in the Desert and ask: Please see Contact.

In USA Ms. Nyla Rodgers takes care of donations. For more informations about Ms. Rodgers and Mr. Hejnfelt please see International

What are donations used for?

Donations are used for actual needs mainly those of kids and young people.
As Wind of Hope in the Arid is a democratic organisation you do not have to fear that the money goes into "the wrong pockets".
By this construction we have no administration fees and 100% of the donations can be used for the purposes.
Conditions.

* Pieces remain at least one year.
* Pieces with contents of pornography, racism and insult to others (inclusive faith and opinions to others) will not be tolerated and will not be uploaded. Donations paid for this will not be refunded.

How to organize collection for a piece?

Some ideas:
* Collect among your class mates. That is only a few ct. to each and your class gets its own piece.
* Ask your company manager or school head master  if the company or school shouldn´t have its own piece and show a human side e.g. by writing "[company / school] supports the fight against AIDS in Africa" and make a link to this home page / your piece.
* Collect among your colleagues in your department and the department gets its own piece.
* Ask your sport team if it shouldn´t have its own piece
* Etc. etc.

They need all the support they can get!
