Please follow our progress and share in the joy of giving.
Once this report has been published we will merge this project with our primary GlobalGiving project as this will very much reflect our ‘family of families’ approach; and those we support feel a part of something we all share in together. So, please take a moment to look at our website and we’ll keep you informed of progress.
In sharing our abundance, we can give life to others.
Our newest sponsor (who is sponsoring a young girl for her education) responded with an inspirational email after we sent her first receipt:
“I feel very blessed that I’m in a position to support Sharaksha with her education. I can remember being a year 11 and 12 student only a few years ago myself, I was given an education by my family which is an opportunity not everyone is fortunate enough to have. I’m very glad that I can help another young woman receive the education that she deserves.”
What a wonderful outlook for a better tomorrow, when the next generation are sharing their abundance with those in need!
IGWR-Nepal is successful at making a real difference!
Although we have not secured additional sponsors for this project, we have been delighted by the generosity of a sponsor who has underwritten the expenses for this family over the past couple of years.
The goal of $118,842 does however remain as this a long-term commitment to support a special needs family with two girls that will life-time care.
What we can certainly celebrate is the success that this project model represents; and it is a model that we now seek to carry through into new projects that give single mums the support they need for their children to have the opportunity of going to school.
The eldest daughter in our “Family Home” has got a scholarship to pursue her higher education in Korea, this is wonderful news as she now moves toward independence and an opportunity to follow her dreams and also support her family back home.
It will of course leave mum alone in looking after the two special needs girls, but mum has the ongoing support of IGWR-Nepal, a family that knows it takes a village to bring up a child.
Little by Little we will make a BIG difference.
We will be part of the GlobalGiving Little X Little campaign starting on September 18th and this is an opportunity for us to receive a 50% bonus on all small donations, it also reflects our own ideology, that together we bring about change.
Our ‘Family Home’ in Nepal is a long-term commitment that gives life and a home to mum and two special needs girls.
And a simple sum shows how, together, we could secure this wonderful initiative:
Just $5 a week
from about forty sponsors
would cover all the expenses for this ‘family’
We create a better tomorrow.
An investment in ‘others’ is an investment in our future, for we are all in this together.
Every gift makes a difference, and IGWR Inc. has no overhead costs so 99.52% of all monies goes directly toward helping this family in Nepal. We are a fully audited charity and all gifts in Australia are Tax deductible.
IGWR Compliance and Transparency.
We are committed to ensuring that we achieve real outcomes with the funds that are entrusted to IGWR, and we strive to set a standard of practice that will ensure that we operate with a ‘best practice’ set of standards. We have our policies and practices available on our website, and are happy to receive questions, comments and suggestions from supporters that can assist us in making improvements.
Thank you for everything
