These holidays... give a gift of hope
With a real project gift from Plan you are giving hope to the children and families whose lives are being threatened in communities throughout East Africa.
Find out moreHow does Plan choose which communities to work in
Communities are chosen by Plan through detailed research over many months.
We spend three to six months consulting with communities we are looking to partner with to understand their challenges and priorities.
We then run a pilot program of six to twelve months to see if we can work with the community for the long term. If this is successful, a child sponsorship program can begin and potentially run for many years to assist the community in meeting its goals.
