Immediate Help for Children in Life-Threatening Situations

Overview

GO & SAVE is dedicated to providing immediate and professional assistance to children facing life-threatening situations. We are committed to supporting children in impoverished and dangerous environments by giving them access to clean water, food, and medical care. Our mission extends to supporting traditional communities and improving their living conditions.

How We Help Children

1. Receiving Requests:
Children come to our attention through referrals from local organizations, community groups, or concerned citizens.

2. Situation Assessment:
We carefully analyze each child's situation and decide on their inclusion in our project.

3. Documentation:
We assign a coordinator, document the child’s details, including photos and videos, and enter them into our system.

4. Medical Assistance:
We organize doctor visits, obtain diagnoses, develop treatment plans, and monitor the recovery process.

5. Ensuring Safety:
If necessary, we involve law enforcement to ensure the child has a safe place to stay.

6. Expense Tracking and Reporting:
We document treatment expenses and prepare reports for our donors.

7. Regular Monitoring:
We continuously monitor the child's condition and provide updates to social media and our supporters.

8. Long-Term Support:
If needed, we provide ongoing assistance until the child has fully recovered.

Our Locations

We operate in four unique locations, each with its specific needs:

• Kenya, Kibera:
  One of the largest and poorest slums in Africa where children face daily challenges such as a lack of clean water, food, and medical care. Our project has already helped 12 children here.

• Burundi, Bujumbura:
  Children live among garbage and are exposed to dangerous living conditions.

• Kenya, Maasai Tribe:
  Children in this region face unique challenges related to traditional lifestyles and limited access to modern amenities.

Budget Overview

We are seeking to raise €608 to support our mission of providing critical medical assistance to children in need. Here’s how this amount was previously spent and why your contribution is crucial for the future of our project.

Total Funds: €608

Number of Children Helped: 12

Expense Breakdown:

The funds were utilized to cover various essential medical services and treatments for 12 children. This included:

• Medical Tests: Multiple analyses were conducted to diagnose various health conditions.
• Medical Imaging: Ultrasound scans were performed to get a detailed view of internal organs.
• Consultations: Several medical consultations were provided by specialists to evaluate the children’s health conditions.
• Surgical Procedure: A significant portion of the funds went towards a critical surgery required to save a child's life.
• Medications and Treatments: Essential medications, including injections and physiotherapy sessions, were provided to support the recovery of the children.
• Hearing Support: Funds were also used for hearing tests and the provision of a hearing aid to a child with hearing impairment.

Why Your Support is Essential:

The initial funds for these treatments were sourced from our school’s budget in Kenya. While this helped us address immediate needs, it is not a sustainable solution. We aim to establish this project as an independent initiative to ensure its continued operation and expansion.

By raising €608, we can ensure that our project:

• Sustainably Provides Medical Care: Securing funds will allow us to continue offering necessary medical treatments to children who otherwise might not have access to them.
• Expands Its Reach: With a stable financial base, we can extend our services to more children in need, addressing their health issues and improving their quality of life.
• Ensures Long-Term Impact: Your contributions will help create a self-sustaining project that can adapt and grow, continuing to make a significant difference in the lives of children facing critical health challenges.

Your donation will directly impact the lives of vulnerable children, providing them with the essential care they need and contributing to the long-term success and expansion of our mission. Together, we can make a lasting difference.
