SOS & GE “Mount Kenya Challenge”: together giving vulnerable
children a home.
"The Mount Kenya Challenge" is a
joint partnership between SOS Children’s Villages International (SOS CVI) and
General Electric (GE) with the goal of raising awareness and funds for orphaned
and abandoned children under the care of SOS CVI.
From 19-26 July 2019, a team of 25 GE volunteers are climbing
Mount Kenya to raise funds to make a lasting impact on the lives of
the children living in the SOS Villages in Lebanon and Egypt. All your
donations to this campaign will be dedicated to directly benefit the
educational and social integration needs of vulnerable children under the care
of SOS in those countries.

SOS VILLAGE IN SFERAI, LEBANON (partial sponsorship $100,000)
Promoting social cohesion and providing support to vulnerable
Syrian and Lebanese Children
Donating to support the running costs of the SOS-family houses in Sferai will ensure both vulnerable Syrian and Lebanese children are raised in loving, caring families with opportunities for their future.
Project Details
There are approximately 1.5 million Syrian refugees in Lebanon,
of which 54.7% are children below the age of 18 years. SOS Children’s Villages
provided emergency rehabilitation support to unaccompanied Syrian refugee
children in Lebanon who had suffered high levels of neglect, abuse and
malnutrition. Most were eventually reunified with their families however some
of the children had no living relatives, or, their parent/s and/or living
relatives were unable to care for them due to child protection issues.
There
are 10 SOS-family houses at the SOS Children’s Village in Sferai in the south
of Lebanon, where vulnerable Lebanese children without parental care are being
raised in loving, caring SOS-families. SOS Children’s Villages has now
successfully integrated 28 Syrian refugee children, who had no other family,
into family houses in the Sferai village. Some of the children are biological
siblings and it was important that they stay together, a key pillar that the
SOS care model upholds globally. Here, they are being raised as part of a
community alongside vulnerable Lebanese children without parental care.

Your
financial support will help cover the costs of the children’s education, health
and living expenses.
