Volunteer
We welcome individuals and groups of volunteers to work with us
to bring hope to the lives of hundreds of War and Aids-related orphans
and vulnerable children in Uganda.
We have several volunteer opportunities for people interested in
making a difference in the life of a child:
Uganda Volunteer - go to Uganda and assist local staff
members with on-going projects, or create your own special project
to benefit the children in Uganda
Development Volunteer - help staff members coordinate
fundraising activities in your area to raise money to support programs
in Uganda.
Office Volunteer - help with administrative tasks in our
local office
The list of volunteer opportunities described above is not exhaustive
and we welcome new volunteer ideas. If you or your service group
have an interest in volunteering, please contact us at info@asayoswish.com
or you can call 801-856-5163

Give a One Time Gift
Make a One-time Gift to Children of Uganda
We realize that some donors do not have the financial capacity or
the interest in sponsoring a child over time, but still wish to
help the children in our programs. One-time contributions are an
excellent way to support Children of Uganda and every dollar donated
helps us provide education and social support to children in need
in this developing nation.
You can help us to give these children (hope) by supporting this
project. It is our aim to initially raise enough money to get the
centre up and running and then to keep it open 365 days a year:
£5 would mean that we could give a child a hot meal every day for
two weeks.
£10 would mean that we could give a child a hot meal every day
for one month.
£30 would mean that we could give two children a hot meal every
day for one month and supply enough electricity for them to have
a shower at least once a week.
£50 would buy essential medical supplies to ensure that these children's
lives are made as comfortable as possible in these very difficult
circumstances.

Sponsor a child
What is Child Sponsorship?
Child sponsorship is a program enabling individuals to financially
support a 'child at risk' in a third-world country on a monthly
basis.
Two levels of sponsorship:
Partial Sponsorship - contributes towards the cost
of food, housing, and clothing for a child, for $33.00 per month
(or $396.00 for a year) this includes a $3.00 handling fee.
Full Sponsorship - contributes towards the cost of
food, housing, clothing, schooling and medical care for a child, for
$63.00 per month (or $756.00 for a year) This includes a $3.00 handling
fee.
After we receive your payment, Asayo's Wish will send you a photograph,
a short biography, and instructions on how to communicate with your
sponsored child.
Asayo's Wish keeps $3.00 per month to offset our handling charges
such as wiring and credit card fees. The rest of the $30.00 or $60.00
per month goes towards the care of the child. Asayo's Wish's administrative
costs for the child sponsorship program are covered by our donors
to Asayo's Wish (specifically designated for administration).

Donation's FAQ's
What methods of payment do you accept?
Options for monthly support are:
Automatic Withdrawal - provide us with a VOID cheque, and we withdraw
your sponsorship on a set day each month. This is our preferred
method of payment, as it is the lowest cost to process.
Credit Card - provide us with authorization to charge your credit
card each month for the amount of your sponsorship. We can accept
payment through Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. This is
convenient and easy, but we must pay a percentage to the credit
card company for their processing.
Post-Dated Cheques - provide us with 12 post-dated cheques.
Options for annual support are:
Credit card authorization for the full year: $396.00 for a partial
sponsorship, and $756.00 for a full sponsorship
Cheque for the full year: $396.00 for a partial sponsorship, and
$756.00 for a full sponsorship.
Will I receive a tax receipt?
Asayo's Wish is a registered charity in USA. We will issue you a
tax receipt early in the following year of your donation.
Can I correspond with my child?
We try to facilitate communication for those sponsors that wish
to correspond with their sponsored child. Asayo's Wish is working
to make correspondence easier between our sponsors and our children.
Many of our homes are in non-English speaking countries, and they
may not have a staff person who can do the necessary translating.
Another hindrance is that they don't have access to such things
as digital cameras or email, (or even electricity!) which means
that we have to wait for one of our staff or friends to travel to
the Home and take updated photos of the children. In all cases,
we will provide you with a mailing address.
Can I visit my child?
Yes, we can help you arrange to visit your child. Please note that
it would be best to start the planning for your trip at least three
months in advance, as different countries have different requirements.
The larger the group traveling, the more time we need to facilitate
them.

Kind friends can also assist Asayo's Wish reach out to hurting
children by giving funds designated for emergency relief, air miles
for travel to Uganda, and medicine. They can also support our mission
by giving toward photography, postage, shipping, business cards,
administrative expenses and cell phone and bicycle purchased in
Uganda.
Thank you for your Support, may God Bless you for your
kindness towards the needy, may you be abundantly blessed…
With good will doing service as to
the Lord and not men…. Knowing that whatsoever good things man doeth,
the same shall he receive of the lord, whether he be bond or free
