“We had to do what was necessary to save lives and give hope”-Mercy and Chidi Ogbonna, Founders of Ripples International

Ripples International was founded in 2001 to help the children made orphan and vulnerable by the AIDS/HIV epidemic in Meru, Kenya. In the midst of a crisis, Ripples is a place of love, hope and healing.  

It is estimated that by the year 2010 in sub-Saharan Africa alone, more than 18 million children – more than all the children in the United Kingdom, will have lost at least one parent to AIDS. To learn more about orphans in Kenya click here.   Less than 10 percent of these vulnerable children are receiving any kind of public support!

Ripples International (RI) has partnered with CharityHelp International (CHI) to change this woeful intervention rate.  The child sponsorship program can increase the number of children and families RI can serve in Meru, Kenya. You can begin making a difference today by sponsoring a child now!

As a sponsor, you can communicate with your child by sharing emails and photographs. You will also get regular updates from CHI and RI with pictures and slideshows. View a slideshow of child-sponsor communications here .  

Join us today!  Give a child a future filled with love, hope, and healing!  

Peace,

Ripples International and CharityHelp International
