Thank you for your interest in supporting an A-CET student. As we move more towards supporting schools upgrading, we now only have a very limited number of destitute orphaned or disabled children awaiting sponsorship.\\ Sponsorships are £10 per month (£15 for disabled) which can sponsor a named child. All know the value of education as a way forward and out of a life-cycle of poverty.\\ Your sponsorship should be a long-term commitment. It will change your child's life for the better. Your child’s progress will be documented annually in our Report. All your sponsorship money goes to the student; we absorb our costs.\\ This money pays for everything such as: School uniform & footwear plus books, pens, school fees and two meals a day. If a student gets sick we arrange treatment.\\ To sponsor, if you have a UK bank account, you may sign up on-line through the CAF Regular donation secure link. If a UK taxpayer, please tick that box. If you are overseas, please donate through the World Pay/Future Pay link.\\ All children are locally selected, often abandoned or orphans with little or no support. If you want more information, go to our partner [[http://www.e-yes.org/About/faq.html|EYES]] web-site's FAQ. Few of our children would be able to attend full-time school without our support.\\ Thank you for your interest in supporting an A-CET student.

- Most disabled in Ethiopia are poor and condemned to a life of begging. We can change that if you sign up to £15 per month you can help totally transform these young peoples' lives and give them real hope for a better future. Our disabled students get an extra allowance to allow them to rent a room by their school. Some traditional beliefs consider disability as a "curse" and children are often hidden, suffering stigmatization with few getting educational opportunities. When our children get scholarships, they invariably do very well academically. This brings great kudos amongdst their peer group and is helping to break down social barriers. + Most disabled in Ethiopia are poor and condemned to a life of begging.
