The Mirembe Cottage of Street Girls offers child sponsorships to help in our care and education of our girls. Some sponsors build relationships with the girls through letters, remembering a birthday and above all, prayer. One may sponsor with a monthly amount from $30 to any amount. We've used $120/month and called it “full sponsorship” without change, for many years, but this does not address everything it takes to raise a girl. With increased costs for everything in Uganda, our true cost to raise a girl is much greater than $120/month.
Your monthly sponsorship gift is a supplement toward our total operational needs of the Mirembe Cottage of Street Girls, school, and farm. We rely on the collective gifts from the child sponsorships and general fund giving to provide shelter, nutrition, clothing, beds, mosquito nets, transportation, supervision, basic medical care, and education for our growing number of girls. It's a blessing to see the relationships develop over time between a sponsor and girl. A girl may have no current sponsors to several. When you come along side us in this partnership, you are loving on your sponsored girl, other girls and our ministry as a whole. When you initiate a sponsorship, you will receive instructions on how you may communicate with your sponsored girl.

RESETTLED
Mirembe strives to maintain family relationships where possible. As we allow Mirembe girls to make family visits when possible and on the council of our social workers, we resettle some children back with relatives. This does not relieve Mirembe of our desire to see the girls continue education so Mirembe continues providing support for education. In some cases it may involve additional support for medical and other living expenses. We thank their sponsors for their continued love and support to make this possible!
