SUPPORTERS: BUILDING COMMUNITY AROUND
THE WORLD
AT HOME:
Funding is provided by churches, schools, civic
groups, families and individuals. The crèche is an ecumenical
project that cuts across economic, religious and social barriers
to bring people of diverse backgrounds together for a common goal
of service to disadvantaged children!
IN INDIA:
Outside agencies often flounder in villages, but
the desire to improve the lives of children motivates skeptical parents
to participate with enthusiasm. The crèche is not an attempt
to intrude on their lives or beliefs, but an effort devoted to the
well-being of their children.
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Crèches are grassroots, direct services for
small, rural Indian villages. The board of the Betsy Elizabeth Trust
has no overhead or big offices and a totally volunteer staff, so
that all funds raised go directly to the school and the needs of
the children. You can join us as a group or an individual! A tiny
step makes big impact on lives both sides of the globe!
