How to help?

How to help?

Happy Home exists thanks to a large group of volunteers, sponsors and partners in Kenya, Belgium, USA, Canada, and Latin America.

How can I donate to Happy Home and its children?

With 35 € per month, we can finance food, education and hygiene for one more child. Casual donors help us to fund projets to improve the infrastructure and life of the children. Godmothers/fathers give a chosen amount every month to the Happy Home children. Find out more about donations and sponsorships.

How can I help Happy Home with my time?

We constantly need volunteers to help us raise funds, to help us with the administration, translation and networking, and to volunteer in Kenya at Happy Home? Please, do not undertake fund-raising or networking activities before contacting us !!!

Note that Happy Home only collects funds through the official bank accounts in Belgium, the USA, Canada and Kenya (see "contacts"). We only collect cash expect during official fund-raising activities (check the Happy Home Calendar & an official letter from Happy Home) !!! Note that all our fundraising activities are mentioned on the Happy Home Calendar. Please, in order to protect the children, mention any fraud found on Internet or during events to info@happyhomekenya.org

Transparency and Confidentiality

Happy Home is audited by a certified auditor referred to us by the Lions' Club of Kisii. The Lions' Club regularly visits Happy Home to ensure transparency. Permanent sponsors (godfathers/godmothers) receive yearly financial reports about the expenses made in Happy Home.

Communication & newsletters

Happy Home does not encourage communication between the sponsors and the children. We believe that this communication is not in benefit of the children, who do not need to be aware that they are funded by international people. Sponsors and friends of Happy Home will instead receive newsletters written by the volunteers and board members of Happy Home. These include pictures of the children, news about the home and fund-raising news. (see "News")
