Eassda International Childcare Foundation was setup as a registered
charity in 2003. Eassda have been sponsoring children since
1992 but as more children were being sponsored the group felt
it was time to set up a registered charity.
The foundation currently sponsors children throughout Africa,
India and Brazil in places such as Haiti, Burundi, Kenya and
Zambia for example. In 1998 members of the family travelled
to Haiti to visit some of the children in the programme. It
was a very humbling experience for all who visited. The programme
helps the children and there families through providing clothing,
school education and food. This also provides the children with
a sense of belonging and one of the requirements is that they
attend church in keeping with the families faith.
The program is run through International Child Care Ministries
which is a part of the Free Methodist Church World Missions.
This system benefits the children more as it not only provides
aid but it educates the people academically, through day to
day living and they learn about the word of God and hopefully
gain a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
