Dear friends, donors, and interested people,
Funding has been a big challenge for this project and we haven't seen much progress yet but we are far from giving up. Our last figure shows there are 4000 children on the waiting list which is a large number, but this project is unique in the sense that its units of success are very easily measured and the whole comprehensive process of getting one child's birth registration only costs around $18. This includes admin fees from the government to process the application as well as transportation to the city.
Without this project's intervention, many children in rural areas would never be registered or have an identity given that this has to be done in the city and travelling there can be very expensive in local terms so it never happens. Having an identity provides the foundation which opens up so many opportunities in the future such as access to legal work which will help people build careers and families of their own.
